Welcome

Our vision is to create artists in an environment that nurtures the creative process and critical thinking.

The Department of Drama at UNC Asheville supports a comprehensive theatre education that supports four areas of study; a general track, acting and directing track, production and design, and licensure.  All students share a common core of classes that help establish critical thinking skills with a sense of aesthetics.  These learned skills are then applied in our laboratory, the mainstage productions.   The mainstage shows have auditions that are open to the entire UNC Asheville community and we invite all in the Asheville area to attend.
