As we all do our part to reduce the spread of coronavirus (Covid-19), the Edgerton Center, in conjunction with the Performing Arts Department, will not produce performances for attendance by the general public at this time. There will be instances of safely produced content made available via livestream or broadcast. Please visit our website for updated information. The health and safety of our students, patrons, faculty/staff, and visiting artists is our priority and we must all do our part to contain the spread of this disease. We look forward to the time we will be able to welcome you back to the Edgerton Center for the Performing Arts.
Theatre Arts Program
The Theatre Arts Program is comprised of innovative and multi-talented students dedicated to creating high-quality theatrical productions at Sacred Heart University.Theatrefest TheatreFest is a three part series where students begin the journey of writing to a fully produced play. The first step, students write scripts and read in front of a live audience for constructive feedback by the audience. The second step, the student-written scripts are staged and performed for a live audience. The third step, students produced a full version of their show, including set, costumes, props, sound and lighting. Events are typically held at Little Theatre, from October to April, and are FREE and open to the public. Reader's TheatreThe first step in script development, new student-written scripts are read in front of a live audience. Constructive feedback is provided by the audience and fellow participants to the author. The goal is a fully produced production. With just a stool and a script, this bare bones reading is the initial step in a journey of writing a fully produced play. Black Box StagingThe second step in script development, new student-written scripts are staged and performed for a live audience. The plays are performed in a Blackbox setting with limited technical aspects, and simplified sets and staging, allowing for an in-depth focus on acting and writing. This workshop features the revised script work and performances, followed by an audience and author/cast/director discussion.
IMPROV ImprovJoin TAP’s own Improv troupe – “The Pioneer Players” – for a make-it-up-as-we-go night of hilarious gags and games. Like the long-running hit TV show, Whose Line Is It Anyway, the night consists of a series of games in which our student performers get themselves in funny situations live, as comedy ensues.
