Theatre

Students who choose to major in theatre are required to take courses in a variety of subjects such as Acting, Voice and Movement, Design & Production, Directing, various upper-level design courses, Dramatic Literature, and History of Western Theatre. While a specific academic "track" of performance, or design, or technical theatre is not a requirement of the progrm, students who are interested in specific careers in the field are able to take specialized courses and independent studies, to hone specific skills. Students who choose to minor in theatre are required to take 20 credit hours. Students have gone on to careers in acting and directing. According to director J. E. R. Friedenberg, the program can teach techniques, tools, processes, and provide opportunities to practice the craft of acting and directing in an environment with constructive feedback.

Dance

Dance is offered as an academic minor subject. Courses are open to all students and include Dance Composition, Ballet, Tap, Jazz, History of Dance, Improvisation, Social Dance, and Design & Production for Dance. Student dancers can also audition for the Wake Forest Dance Company, which produces two dance concerts every year. The company is composed of dancers with a variety of dance backgrounds and styles including ballet, jazz, modern, tap, and hip-hop. The dance concerts are exclusively cast from members of the Dance Company. The Fall Dance Concert is choreographed by faculty and professional guest artists, while the Spring Dance Concert is choreographed by student choreographers.

University Theatre

University Theatre has been offering plays and musicals since 1942. In the first decade of the twenty-first century, there have been four main productions during each annual school season, and feature musicals, comedies, drama and tragedies.

Student groups

The Department is the home of many theatre student groups. The most active is the service organization, the Anthony Aston Players, which supports the Department productions, produces their own plays and performances, and engages in campus-wide service and charitable events such as Project Pumpkin and Hit the Bricks. Other groups include the Chinese Theatre group, BiMoo, a student comedy troupe known as the Lilting Banshees, and a multicultural theatre ensemble known as Umoja.
