Advanced Certificate in Educational Theatre


Adelphi University offers Bachelor of Fine Arts degrees in Dance and Theatre Arts (emphasis in Acting and Design and Technology). The B.F.A. in Theatre Arts: Acting degree program educates students for work in the theatre and its allied branches. While a performing arts education provides students with the skills and attitudes necessary for a life in the theatre, it also seeks to awaken in the student a creative sensibility through a serious study of the traditions and literature of the theatre. Because the program recognizes the importance of both aspects of the performer's training, the acting degree curriculum, which offers a spectrum of basic and advanced acting styles, takes place in a liberal arts setting.

When I often have a random thought, I usually write it down in my notes app on my phone. And when it comes to sitting down at my computer to write, I have multiple jumping off points!
