Study Abroad

Each Spring semester, the TMA Department sponsors a London Theatre study abroad trip. This program is ideal for English, theatre, humanities, and creative writing students, but will give breadth and enjoyment to students of any major. Students will experience some of the best theatre the world has to offer, attending a broad variety of plays (from Shakespeare to contemporary theatre) performed by some of the greatest dramatic companies (the Royal Shakespeare Company, the National Theatre) in some of the greatest venues (the West End, the fringe, the Barbican, Stratford-Upon-Avon). Courses in the history of theatre and in Shakespeare will make attending these plays more meaningful.

London also offers ballet, symphonies, museums, cathedrals, gardens, and walks through buildings constructed long before the United States became a country. Students will spend several days at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford-Upon-Avon and other regional theatre festivals, almost seven weeks at both the mainstream West End theatres (including the newly reconstructed Globe of Shakespeare’s time), and at the lesser-known but highly imaginative experimental stages of London.
