Theatre as a Liberal Art

Theatre as a Liberal Art serves nearly 1000 college and university professors nationwide who believe in the intrinsic value of theatre as a liberal art. In 1986, when ATHE was organized, we united to become a focus group within the large organization. Our membership includes faculty who teach in one person programs in small colleges as well as those who work in large university departments. Our constituency is a group of dynamic, dedicated and committed individuals who are concerned with the future of theatre education and the role of the arts in society. If you share these values, join us center stage!
