Hello,
I want to welcome you to our theatre department! Our mission at Theatre Southeast is to present a variety of genres and theatrical periods that provide a broad overview of dramatic literature and production. Our actors and technicians work very hard to take the material from page to stage, and I want to express my appreciation for the long hours they invest. They are students (like you) who have an interest in the arts, and are participating in this production as a class requirement. If you would like to get more involved, opportunities exist no matter what level of experience you bring to the process. Enrolling in DRAM 1120, Theatre Practicum, is the first step. Every student in that class has a guarantee of either being cast or working backstage on some aspect of the production. Our department also offers classes in acting and stagecraft, as well as introductory courses in theatre and film studies. Whether your interest lies in performance, design, or technical theatre, we have a place waiting for you.
Even if you choose not to participate directly in the productions, your role as an audience member is equally important. Without your support, our performances would not be possible. We truly appreciate all of our patrons! I hope you have an enjoyable experience at Theatre Southeast, and please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or comments.

Director of Theatre, TCC-SE; Associate Professor of Drama
