Program Overview

The Drama Department serves the campus community by providing the opportunity to engage in theatre practice in the classroom, online and on stage.

Open auditions for theatrical productions occur each quarter, inviting students to work side-by-side with members of the local theatre community to practice their theatrical craft, from set construction to make up and acting. Students are encouraged to participate in the department by attending theatrical performances, which are free for SVC students.
