PRODUCTION CORE
The core of our training program is our emphasis on production. Each semester, we produce one mainstage faculty production, and at least four studio productions by students. The mainstage productions are supported by a creative team drawn from academic faculty and professional faculty and staff; the student productions are supported by instructors who offer mentoring and individual guidance. Production also serves as the cornerstone for our process of evaluation. Over the past two decades, we have produced nearly 50 mainstage productions and 200 student productions. This high level of activity has been significant in the history of Taiwan’s theatre, and has contributed to building up Taiwan’s vibrant theatre sector.
Since our founding in 1982, on the basis of this production core, the Department of Theatre Arts has graduated over 600 BFA students, and over 100 MA students. Our graduates continue to utilize our theatrical heritage to expand our future, with fulfilling careers in theatre, film, television and education.
