Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [Theatre] From California Baptist University

Our program gathers weekly for Community Time. During these times the students and faculty worship together in song, scriptural devotions, prayer and times of sharing. We use this time to invite Christian theatre professionals, two or three times each semester, to share their experiences. All CBU students are encouraged to participate in our productions. Students work with faculty and staff on all aspects of production including set design, costumes, lighting and sound design, stage managing and even assistant directing. This creates a truly collaborative environment where students grow and flourish.

We have a musical theatre touring group, which is a small audition group of students who perform at schools, churches, homeless shelters and community groups. The show is between 45 minutes to an hour long and gives an overview of the musical theatre genre from Rodgers and Hammerstein to Lin-Manuel Miranda. Alumni have performed in Shakespeare by the Sea, the Disney Cruise Line, children?s theatres, and Off-Broadway theatres, and have studied abroad at the Theatre Academy London, Trinity College in Ireland, and the University of Westminster in England.
