About the course
Theater and Performance Studies (TAPS) seeks to animate the intersection of practice and theory in the arts. TAPS offers studio classes, seminars, and studio-seminars, which combine academic and practice-based inquiry. TAPS courses are taught by distinguished faculty as well as professional artists from Chicago's vibrant theater community. Students work ly with the Director of Undergraduate Studies and faculty advisors to shape an individual course of study that reflects the student?s interests while fulfilling the program?s requirements. Each student?s coursework may be organized around one or more clusters, including, for example, acting, dance, devising and writing (across media), design, directing, dramaturgy, media arts, performance studies, theater history, or some combination of the above. Students majoring in other fields of study may double major or complete a minor in TAPS. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
