Central Michigan University Department of Theatre and Dance

At CMU we meet each student where they are and guide them toward their goals.

Our department is a vibrant and passionate community of dedicated artists and scholars. We offer a variety of exciting programs for performers, designers, choreographers, and technicians where you'll work with faculty and staff to craft an experience that encourages your curiosity, sparks your creativity, and develops you personally and professionally. 

You’ll enjoy many opportunities to "learn by doing" through the more than 30 productions we sponsor each year. Frequent master classes taught by professional guest artists are offered and you’ll experience firsthand the excitement of becoming theatre professionals.
