Welcome to the Department of Dramatic Arts

All Dramatic Arts degree offerings are united under one goal: to integrate theory and practice so as to provide students with a broad educational base combining research, practice and creative development.

Inspiring facilities and creative atmosphere.

The Department of Dramatic Arts is located in the new Marilyn I. Walker School of Fine and Performing Arts facility at 15 Artists’ Common in downtown St. Catharines. Facilities include four rehearsal and performance studios (two with lighting grids, one with production booth, one with adjacent wet lab), a scenography studio, coach/scene work room, the new Marilyn I. Walker Theatre: a flexible 242-seat venue with adjacent green and dressing rooms, scene shop, costume shop, production lighting and sound shops. DART courses are also taught in the venues of the adjacent FirstOntario Performing Arts Centre.

“I can unequivocally state that my time spent in Brock’s Dramatic Arts program has assisted me in becoming the best version of myself.”
