  3. Explore the intersection of theatre and other art forms/areas of academic study to create interdisciplinary work.
  4. Acquire techniques to create new work effectively in an ensemble, as a collaborator with other artists, or as an independent artist.
  5. Discover ways their art can speak to and/or grow out of work with specific communities.
  6. Demonstrate a firm grounding in the history of experimental performance and theories of the historical avant-garde, and articulate the relationship between these histories and theories, and their unique individual aesthetics.
