Theatre Minor

Theatre at George Fox University incorporates more than just acting – it is viewed as a form of communication with significant intellectual, social, moral and spiritual values for both participant and audience.

As a theatre minor, you’ll be part of a co-curricular program responsible for facilitating on-campus productions that create formational experiences for all George Fox students. You can choose from dynamic studio courses in acting, design, and directing/literature – courses you can take multiple times in various formats. You will also get the opportunity to engage in design courses connected to our music major’s music industry and worship arts concentrations! 

We present three main-stage productions each year: usually a comedy in the fall, a musical in winter, and a drama in spring. We also produce student-directed works and host performances by Epiphany, our touring theatre troupe. All these opportunities will expose you to the art of servant storytelling in a community of theatre lovers dedicated to integrating faith and artistic excellence in order to make an impact in our local and global communities.

Ultimately, our mission is to offer a program that prepares Christian artists to make meaningful contributions to our world. Beyond that, theatre courses and performances teach you invaluable life skills such as teamwork, empathy, time management, whole body awareness, thinking on your feet, and public speaking. In short, the skills you learn and develop can be applied to whatever career path you choose.
