Often these shows are student directed and designed. We encourage participation in all areas of program by both serious theater artists and general education students. All shows and courses are open to all students of Chabot. Collaborations include Berkeley Repertory Theater, Campo Santo and Word for Word. Each production at Chabot has the opportunity to enter the American College Theater Festival, a nationwide competition for actors and production teams.
All students have the opportunity to travel to the annual Festival, held regionally.
Each year students in theater courses have the opportunity to travel to this internationally recognized theater company and see shows and talk to company members. For a reasonable rate, students and faculty travel together each October. Children s Theater As of Fall 1999, we are reconstructing our children s theater program for the Spring of 2001.
