Overview

Key features

Minnesota State University Mankato's department offers a comprehensive curriculum designed to balance students' practical training with historical and socio-political context to prepare them as creative and scholarly practitioners in the performing arts.

Theatre and Dance students’ ability to think critically and act globally equips them with the necessary knowledge and skills to enter professional lives as performers, choreographers, technicians, designers, educators, arts administrators, arts advocates, and leaders in the arts.

As a result, they emerge from the program with greater global, historical, racial, cultural, gender, and justice literacy in their fields.
