This program, offered by the Department of Theatre, provides specialized training to candidates who have given evidence of professional promise in playwriting. The Department of Theatre places great emphasis on collaborative work among designers, performers, directors and writers, thus offering a unique opportunity for playwrights to have their work nurtured and supported by others who work with it at various levels.
Sixty-four credit hours, including a thesis, and two years of residence are required. In a two-year sequence a student would have eight required courses in directing, advanced playwriting and dramatic literature and a total of eight electives at the 300 level or above, with the recommendation that half be in dramatic literature. Electives may be chosen from acting, directing and design/tech courses and from courses outside the department and within the Five Colleges. To count toward the degree, all work must receive a grade of at least B–, but the degree will not be awarded to a student who has no grade above this minimum.
Interested students may consult the graduate adviser in the Department
of Theatre, Smith College, Northampton, MA 01063: Leonard Berkman,
