"Xavier Theatre has a unique ability of taking a passion for acting and further developing it into a full appreciation and drive for theatre as an art form. During my time at Xavier, I learned much more about acting, but also: playwriting, directing, sound design, set design and producing. As someone who founded a theatre company in Cincinnati, I have repeatedly used all of these skills with The Ghostlight Stage Company. And many of my professional collaborators have been individuals I met during my time at Xavier - both students and professors."

"Xavier Theatre has provided me with a strong community full of kindness, support, and endless opportunities from day one. As a student, you are encouraged to try everything and to be all that you can be and I am confident this is where I am meant to be."

"Xavier Theatre is for lifelong learners. More specifically, it is for the artist that understands that there are always ways to improve their craft. There is never an arrival but the everpresent opportunity to dig deeper and expand wider. The holistic nature of the degree allows one to experience collaboration from the numerous disciplines of theatre. Students live the concept that one "should not wait to be a professional to 'act' professional" from day one, and in turn, comprehend that anyone they may encounter during their four years is a colleague and connection to their futures."
