Gordon College Theatre Arts

Gordon College Theatre Arts A place for Gordon Theatre artists, students, alumni, and prospectives alike, to come together

The Gordon College Department of Theatre Arts prepares you for a life of service and leadership in theatre settings from the commercial and non-profit to the school, community, and church. The program develops and nurtures a mature, Christian perspective equipped for both analyzing performances and artistic expression, grounded in a foundation of:

Theatre History
Dramatic Literature
Acting
Direct

ing
Technical Production

If, as John Calvin suggests, "the primary duty of the Christian is to make the invisible kingdom visible," theatre is uniquely endowed to vividly fulfill this calling. Whether by creating work which decries what is cheap, hollow, pretentious and evil or by celebrating what is valuable, excellent, good and holy in our culture, quality theatre has the potential to awaken an audience to its own spiritual failures and capabilities.

"Into the Woods" is opening in just a few weeks!! 🌳 🏰 🎶 Be sure to get your tickets with the link in the comments below.

⭐️About the show⭐️
One of the most beloved and critically acclaimed musicals, "Into the Woods" provides a montage of fairy tale characters whose paths intertwine as they chase their deepest hopes and dreams through an enchanted forest. When they find their happily ever after, they discover that "wishes come true, not free." Sondheim's words remind us to choose our paths thoughtfully and to remember that indeed, "no one is alone." "Into the Woods" is a musical that appeals to both the heart and the head.

Directed by Norm Jones

JUST ENOUGH TO LIVE by Gail Maxwell: When does a performance become theatre? What separates a poetry reading from a monologue performance? In the place between these two ideas of poetry and performance my showcase explores the themes of joy and wonder within daily life and finding the strength that God has placed within each of us, enabling us to live. Be encouraged and uplifted to embrace the little things that often get lost in life.  Rejoice, you are alive.

Gail’s Senior Showcase is from May 2-4 at 7:45pm!
