Bold Artists Thriving Together

ÃÛèÖÊÓÆµâ€™s School of Theater is built around experience, where committed faculty artist mentors encourage the exploration and tenacity that develops bold artists with unique voices. To truly thrive in the theater, one must explore the space, take risks while simultaneously feeling safe, and immerse oneself in the art that happens in front of the curtain and the operations behind it.

Student Testimonial

I’ve always taken great pride in considering myself fiercely independent, but the more I reflect the more I realize my time at OU has been defined by the wealth of collaborative spirits and opportunities I’ve found here. Whether it’s been in my work onstage as an actress, behind the scenes as a music director, or virtually through my position as the Assistant Audition coordinator for the School of Theater, the work I have cherished the most have been when I’ve struck a connection to someone new. Regardless of the challenges I’ve experienced, I’m so grateful for the mentors and friends I’ve found who also decided to come to this little town in Ohio and stuck with me through it all. - Lauren Janoschka
