    • Learn the art and practice of collaboration through developing and producing theatre and dance performances
    • Contextualize theatre and dance in the history of the human condition
    • Exercise critical and creative thinking skills and intellectual depth bt reading, analyzing, producing theatre and dance
    • Demonstrate commitment through rigor and care through work on productions and in the classroom
