The Theatre and Dance Department is, along with the Music Department, part of the performing arts at Alma College in Alma, Michigan. Arts are a vital part of the Alma experience where students can participate in any or all of the performing arts. One recent graduate noted. "Alma’s theatre program provides an all-around great experience. I trained in acting and technical theatre and used my skills on stage or behind the scenes in all of our productions. Additionally, I could be very active in the dance program and earned a dance minor."
