Our program combines the intensive professional training of an acting school with the academic preparation of an honours-level drama degree. No other drama and theatre program in Canada offers a comparable education. Students gain professional-calibre experience at the acclaimed Theatre Erindale, working in every capacity, from front-of-house to backstage production and on-stage performance. They are encouraged to pursue additional performance opportunities on campus and in the community.
You'll attend both institutions simultaneously. At UTM, you'll take drama courses covering the history, theory, and literature of Western drama and film. Acting classes and theatre studies take place at Sheridan and feature small, intimate class sizes; and personalized acting instruction, with emphasis on voice, text, movement, scene study and improvisation. This unique theatre program provides you with an exceptionally broad range of opportunities to develop and express your creativity; and a wide variety of drama and theatre career options to explore after graduation. |
