The Towson MFA in theatre is a unique program that trains the total theatre maker as self-producing artist.

The program is dedicated to creating a fluid, alternative environment for the training of the total theatre maker. The program is designed as a self-directed process that will challenge, expand and develop each participant's artistic vision. This vision is explored in terms of its structural, aesthetic and cultural context, as well as its skillful application of craft.

Intercultural, interdisciplinary and collaborative, Towson 's MFA in theatre is for artists who cannot be content working in a single discipline or in the traditional conservatory model. They want to construct the soundscape that interacts with the spoken text they have written. They want to build the puppets as well as train the performers they're directing. They want to perform the text themselves, illuminated by their own lighting design. They want to create the installation in which they will perform.
