Program Mission
The Theatre program at Belmont Abbey College offers students opportunities to be educated and (should they choose) attain practical experience in the field of Theatre. Through both theoretical and practical work in the theatrical arts, students nourish their minds and spirits, working together to create art that reflects the beauty of God. The minor can be useful in and of itself, laying the practical groundwork for the student to seek admission to an M.F.A. program in either acting or technical work. It also serves as a useful addition to many other majors offered by Belmont Abbey College.
