Performing arts

In 2006, the Academic Theatre and Dance programs at the college assumed new direction under Program Coordinator Jody P. Person. In partnership with the Entertainment Technology program, the Theatre and Dance programs set out to offer students two-year training in the performing arts after the model of a four-year conservatory.

In September 2008, the programs adopted a new logo and moniker, "MCCC On Stage," to represent the combined output of the Theatre, Dance, and Entertainment Technology Programs. According to the most recent program description to appear in a Theatre Program production playbill:

The Theatre and Entertainment Technology programs at MCCC combine intensive classroom study and hands-on experience to challenge the serious student who aspires to a career in the entertainment industry or wishes to pursue training at a four-year conservatory or liberal arts program. The Theatre program is dedicated to developing the total actor who can cope with the demands of the contemporary stage and work with a range of dramatic materials - from classical to modern, musicals to the avant-garde - that reflect current productions in the theatre centers of this country today.

Theatre, Dance, and Entertainment Technology programs faculty include Person (Theatre, Rutgers University Mason Gross School of the Arts, MFA), Janell Byrne (Dance, Juilliard), Robert Terrano (Entertainment Technology), M. Kitty Getlick (Kelsey Theatre), Kate Pinner (Stagecraft, Yale School of Drama), Alex DeFazio (Theatre, Columbia University, MFA), and Louis Wells (Theatre, Rutgers University Mason Gross School of the Arts, MFA).
