Performing Arts Department

Body

At Saint Mary’s we build creative artists with strong foundational skills and adventuresome spirits.

You’ll receive conservatory-caliber training in a small classroom setting. Our world-renowned faculty of scholars and artists will equip you for graduate studies or a career in the performing arts, while developing your critical thinking and communication skills, the hallmarks of a liberal arts education.

作为舞蹈, 剧院, or Music student, you’ll progress through a sequence of courses that will emphasize performance practice, history and theory, and criticism and analysis. You’ll also be encouraged to explore interdisciplinary pathways through classes and performance opportunities beyond your home program.

The Making of a Musical

In the year 2020, when many canceled performances, the Performing Arts Department got to work creating an original musical, gather ‘round, built by students for students. Working virtually with industry professionals across the country, the team created a musical from the group up, composing music, writing the script, learning choreography, and even how to set up lighting and cameras. Watch our short video about their journey.
