The Lewis & Clark Theatre Department has always been committed to excellence both on and off the stage. Every year the program is host to a variety of stage opportunities for students ranging from the annual Main Stage and Black Box productions, to the Dance Extravaganza, to T-labs.

All students are encouraged not only to audition for these various activities, but also to take classes within the department to enrich their individual cultural experiences. The Theatre Department offers both a major and a minor as well as a variety of classes for non-majors.
