Mandatory Advisement

Prior to each semester’s course registration period, each theater major is required to meet with their faculty advisor to discuss course selection and assess the student’s academic progress. Once a schedule for the following semester is jointly approved, the student receives departmental permission to register for classes on line.

 

Production Participation

All theatre majors are required to complete one department-sponsored production assignment each semester of residence. Completed assignments should reflect the broad spectrum of theatre production areas, including, but not limited to: acting, directing, scenery, costumes, properties, lighting, sound, makeup, technology, management, and dramaturgy. Courses that require a production assignment as part of the course (TH 261, 262, 263, 276, 284, 339, 361A, 361B, 362A, 362B, 363A, 363B, 367, 376, 382ABC, 383, 384, 443, 498B, 498C, and 498D) will fulfill the production assignment for the semester during which the course is taken. Theatre majors are required to receive credit for either TH 191 (lower division) or TH 391 (upper division) each semester to validate their production assignment.

AVENUE Q Poster

AVENUE Q, THE MUSICAL

Music and Lyrics by Robert Lopez and Jeff Marx
Book by Jeff Whitty

Winner of the TONY® “Triple Crown” for Best Musical/Best Score/Best Book, AVENUE Q is part flesh, part felt and packed with heart. With a colorful cast of puppets and actors, it’s what one reviewer likened to “Sesame Street” meets “Rent”, a laugh-out-loud musical about a recent college grad coming of age in a shabby apartment on run-down Avenue Q. It’s grownup, racy fun, decidedly not for innocents under twelve. Avenue Q has not been authorized or approved by the Jim Henson Company or Sesame Workshop, which have no responsibility for its content.

Nordhoff Hall Campus Theatre

Apr. 27-28-29, May 2-3-4-5-6. 2012
