FEATURES

An extension of our academic program is our excellent program of theatrical productions. Each year we offer six major productions and some twenty minor productions of one-acts, master's thesis productions, originals, tour shows, puppet productions and reader's theatre all of which provide an excellent showcase for the student of Theatre at Sacramento State. Physical facilities for these productions include the University Theatre for proscenium productions, the Playwright's Theatre for original and experimental productions, and the Studio Theatre for student-directed productions. Included in the program are African American and Chicano/Latino Theatre productions that make this department unique in the State University System.
