Cocurricular Programs
The Department of Theatre and Dance supports, directs, and staffs two cocurricular programs to supplement classroom theory and to benefit the University and surrounding communities. Students receive practical training through participation in cocurricular programs:
MTSU Dance Theatre-The MTSU Dance Theatre provides students with pre-professional performance experience while in college. Dance Theatre auditions take place during the first week of classes fall semester for the fall company and during the first week of classes spring semester for the spring company.
