Theatre Arts Associate in Arts for Transfer

The Associate in Arts in Theatre Arts for Transfer (AA-T) meets the lower division course requirements necessary for the California State University (CSU) system. Theatre students gain self-confidence and work in a collaborative environment through class projects and performances. Theatre encourages students to take risks, to focus on their intentions and the tremendous power of personal commitment to a project or play. The core values of our Theatre Arts program are personal integrity, social justice, and examining how art imitates life.
