The Fresno State Theatre Arts Department invites you and your students to visit our campus on Thursday, November 30 for our 24th Annual Open House.

This event gives college-bound high school students the opportunity to meet our faculty and to discover more about our programs in Theatre and Dance. The day includes Scholarship auditions and interviews, workshops, tours of the facility, and a pizza party; it ends with a final dress rehearsal of The Two Gentlemen of Verona directed by Professor Brad Myers in the John Wright Theatre.

PLEASE NOTE: We are making some changes to the Open House schedule and how we handle auditions for Theatre Arts and Dance Scholarships.
