The Studio Theatre is a laboratory theatre used for acting and directing classes as well as for student directed plays and projects. Opened in the Fall of 1996, the intimate Performing Arts Theatre is a "black box" theatre designed for flexibility with seating and staging configurations such as thrust, arena, or open end. The audience capacity varies between 85 and 150 people. The theatre has state of the art computerized lighting and sound systems. The support areas for the theatres and dance studios include rehearsal rooms, fully equipped and staffed scenery and costume shops, laundry and dye room facilities, dressing rooms, and various storage and office facilities.
