The department offers three degrees: a BFA in Theatre, a BFA in Theatre with Teaching Certification, and a BFA in Musical Theatre. The BFA in Theatre has three emphases: Acting/Directing, Design/Technology, and Theatre Studies. \n\nAdmission for all degree programs is by audition/interview only. Prospective students should visit the auditions webpage for each degree program to learn more about the audition process and to submit an application. Musical theatre majors declare an area of emphasis by their junior year which allows for twelve additional hours of study in either dance or theatre. \n\nThe department produces between eight and ten productions during the nine-month academic year and various productions over the summer. Students have the opportunity to apply classroom knowledge and techniques to production work during the course of the semester. Freshmen may be cast alongside upperclassmen, and advanced students in stage management, design, technology (costumes, lights, sets), directing, and house management may be chosen to fill the lead positions in their fields for any of the departmentally-produced shows.\n\nAdvanced students may take advantage of a number of internships with theatres in the Greater Houston area. The close proximity to the city also provides students with the opportunity to experience live professional theatre throughout their study. Workshops and discussions led by guest artists occur in the department each year."},"ceterms:subjectWebpage":"http://catalog.shsu.edu/undergraduate/colleges-academic-departments/arts-and-media/theatre-musical/bfa-musical-theatre-theatre-emphasis","ceterms:credentialStatusType":{"@type":"ceterms:CredentialAlignmentObject","ceterms:framework":"https://credreg.net/ctdl/terms/CredentialStatus","ceterms:targetNode":"credentialStat:Active","ceterms:frameworkName":{"en-US":"Credential Status"},"ceterms:targetNodeName":{"en-US":"Active"},"ceterms:targetNodeDescription":{"en-US":"Awards of the credential are ongoing."}}}
