Help the Wellesley College Theatre Studies Program continue to provide a hands-on, unique and experiential learning program to today's emerging artists. We thank you for your support.

From Department Chair Marta Rainer:

"We aim to help our students gain a deep awareness of the technical components, practical application and historical and social contexts of theatrical performance craft -- while simultaneously marveling at the wonders of human behavior which drama seeks to explore.

We strongly encourage in the inventive lives of our students a confident autonomy as creators who can envision a product, articulate their goals, and relish navigating the collaborative process towards its accomplishment.

An educational investigation of theatre provides the unique incentive to understand, engage in and challenge the many iterations of this ancient and global ritual. It puts people in a room together and forces them to address challenges and take risks in real time. It foments a productive confrontation between a students need to surrender to the unknown and to simultaneously embrace self-discipline sitting the study of theatre at the crossroads of their journey here at Wellesley, and beyond."
