What it is	This program teaches you how to build theatre productions from the design and technical side — lighting, set design, costumes, sound, and stagecraft — rather than focusing on acting or playwriting. You'll study both the artistic principles of design and the practical skills needed to realize a director's vision on stage. It suits people who are creative and detail-oriented but prefer working behind the scenes to solve problems and bring stories to life physically.	A BA Honours at Guelph lets you specialize in one of nine humanities and social science subjects — from English to Economics to Fine Art — while completing a standard four-year degree. The co-op option integrates paid work terms into your studies, letting you gain professional experience in your field alongside classroom learning. This suits students who want depth in a particular subject and prefer learning through both study and real-world application.
