"A theatre school should not always journey in the wake of existing theatre forms. On the contrary, it should have a visionary aspect, developing new languages of the stage and thus assisting in the renewal of theatre itself." (Jacques Lecoq)

The University of Kentucky Department of Theatre is grounded in the belief that theater is a fundamental cultural necessity that enriches all who participate in it.

Our B.A. Degree program emphasizes the interaction of practice and theory and is geared toward students who are interested in theater as a part of a liberal arts education.

With an astounding 6:1 student to faculty ratio, our undergraduate students receive unparalleled mentoring throughout their four years at the University of Kentucky. Students create a program that is unique to their interests and strengths, with freedom to choose between three categories of electives to complete a truly individualized course of study.

The Department of Theatre is oriented toward a multi-cultural world-view, inter-disciplinary collaborations and civic responsibility through Engagement and Service-Learning. Theatre courses emphasize the truly inclusive nature of the art form, which encompasses performance, literature, design, history, artistic community, and intellectual rigor.
