BIG GIVE IS OVER, BUT YOU CAN STILL SUPPORT YOUR FAVORITE PROGRAMS.

Theater, Dance & Performance Studies

Your gift helps fund artist residencies, visiting scholars, special workshops and lectures, professional development coaching for students, and helps keep classes small and vibrant.

The Department of Theater, Dance, and Performance Studies teaches performance as a mode of critical inquiry, creative expression, and public engagement. Through performance training and research, we help liberal arts graduates expand their analytical, technical, and imaginative capacities. The smaller class sizes are necessary to develop artistic and expressive skills in young artists and thinkers. As a public institution, we make diversity and inclusion a key part of our teaching, art making, and public programming.

Every gift provides vital support that allows us to provide the best academic and performance opportunities for our students. Please give today — and thank you for supporting Theater, Dance and Performance Studies at UC Berkeley!
