The Department of Theatre offers programs that permit students to be introduced to the diverse practical
applications of the theatrical arts, and the varied areas of research in theatre studies.

The programs integrate the dominant English and French theatrical traditions; this complementary approach
encourages students to explore both traditions.

Ample opportunity is provided for involvement in theatrical productions which are considered to be an
integral part of the theatre programs.

The Department of Theatre is responsible for courses with codes beginning with THE and AMT.

Programs

1. Certain courses required for the honours with specialization program are bilingual.
2. Because of the highly specialized nature of certain studio courses, in particular the directing and acting
courses, the Department may require an interview, an audition, or another form of evaluation. Enrolment in
those courses will be limited.
3. Any theatre course given in English may be replaced by the equivalent course given in French, in consultation with the Department.
