The University of Iowa Department of Theatre Arts is one of the oldest and most respected theatre programs in the country. We offer students the opportunity to earn an undergraduate BA degree, or an MFA degree with an emphasis in acting, directing, design, playwriting, dramaturgy, or stage management. For more than 100 years we have supported the development of new plays by students, faculty, and
distinguished guests. We recognize that every play, whether new or old, is brought to life through the complex collaborative effort of a writer, director, dramaturg, designers, actors, stage managers, and technicians. In order to support this process, we seek to create an atmosphere of passion for the art and generosity of spirit. The Department of Theatre Arts is accredited by the National Association of Schools of Theatre. Along with its professional wing, the Iowa Summer Rep, it is a member of the University/Resident Theatre Association (U/RTA). https://linktr.ee/uiowatheatre
