DeSales University Division of Performing Arts

DeSales University Division of Performing Arts Welcome to the Official page for the DeSales University School of Performing Arts! The B.A. Actors act in filmmakers’ films.

The School of Performing Arts at DeSales University was founded on the belief that the role of the artist is to give beauty back to the world. We have always believed that the beauty of music, dance, theatre, and film hold the power to sooth the wounds of an increasingly abrasive society. Therefore, we believe it is our mission to shape pathways of discovery for our students, helping them see that

creativity holds the power to illuminate truth and elevate the human spirit. Whether on film, on stage, or in the classroom, our rigorous training programs in Theatre, Dance and TV Film, taught by seasoned, professional teaching artists, help students become tellers of enchanting and provocative stories, which, with the mere rise of a curtain, unlock the limitlessness of the imagination. We are committed to the Bachelor of Arts degree which provides the flexibility that allows our student artists to pursue a minor or even a dual major. also allows our students to spend a semester abroad and participate in internship/experiential learning opportunities. Our School fosters very healthy relationships between the disciplines. Filmmakers and dancers collaborate on dance on camera creations. Actors learn acting techniques specific to the camera, etc. The School's network of visiting guest professionals and artists enrich the experience of students through residencies and master classes. These are just a few of the reasons why the DeSales Performing Arts programs have such outstanding reputations. We cherish the performing arts and all they do to lift the human spirit, better our world, and positively impact peoples’ lives.
