The mission of the Performing Arts and Social Justice major is to create artists engaged with the world. Through both courses and productions, USF faculty and students integrate their work with the variety of communities that surround us. Courses provide students with the opportunity to critically reflect on their work while productions provide a creative bridge to the people of the Bay Area and beyond.

After completing your foundations courses in performance, you will be admitted as a member of The Company, a student/faculty collaboration for majors only. The Company combines creative risk-taking with a serious engagement in community issues culminating with the performance of an original production.

Members of the 2003 graduating class has chosen to focus on the issues in the Middle East. Join us in the Spring as our majors put their service into action through a final performance. This page will have updates on the project as the academic year progresses.
