Performing Arts
Dynamic, creative, interdisciplinary and thoughtful, the LJCDS performing arts program is an integral part of each student’s liberal arts education. Whether acting in a play, singing a chorale, dancing a
pas de deux,
or marching in a drumline, students are encouraged to use their imagination while simultaneously building discipline-specific skills through intensive training with our dedicated faculty of professional working artists.
Class offerings in music, acting, dance, and technical theater also emphasize interdisciplinary collaboration, often culminating in public performances both on and off campus, from our own Four Flowers Theater to international stages worldwide. As part of a holistic approach to learning, our students are encouraged to view their work within a broader sociocultural context, exploring ideas relevant to their studies and their lives as young, maturing global citizens.
