The minor in theatre encourages students majoring in other fields to organize their theatre studies in a coherent manner. The minor requires students to gain both depth and breadth in the study and practice of theatre.

Minor Requirements (7 units)

All courses for SoC majors, minors, fields of concentration and distribution requirements must be completed with a grade of C- or higher and may not be taken P/N.

A maximum of the equivalent of 2 non-Northwestern academic units can count towards an SoC minor.

7 courses including at least 3 at the 300-level.

At least 5 of the 7 courses for the minor must be offered by the theatre department; the other 2 may be approved courses in departments or programs outside theatre (e.g., performance studies, gender studies, comparative literature). 

2 courses in Theatre History, Literature, Criticism, and Theory

1 course in Theatre Performance

1 course in Theatre Design

2 additional courses in one of the above areas to form a required concentration.

1 theatre elective course (any course within the Theatre Department).

NOTE: The sequence of courses in acting (273-1,2,3; 373-1,2,3) is open solely to theatre majors due to the space limitations of these courses.  Declaring a theatre minor will not provide access to these courses.
