The theater programs at NW, NE, SE and South campuses allow students to develop their talents under professionals.

Opportunities range from on-stage performances to backstage work, inviting students to immerse themselves in the world of theater.

Under the guidance of Brent Alford, director of theater on NW Campus, students can explore their potential.

“I’ve seen a lot of young adults come and go,” Alford said. “I couldn’t ask for more from these students.”

Scarlett Jobe is a NW student drawn to theater. Midway through college, she realized this is what she wanted to do.

“The best thing I did was join the program,” Jobe said. “I didn’t know what I wanted to do with my life.”

NW student Victoria Wilde, whose love for theater ignited in seventh grade, envisions a future on Broadway.

“Theater gives me hope,” Wilde said. “I’m going to give it my all.”

Bryson Coffey, NE Campus student, highlights the dedication behind each performance.

“We really put the time and effort to get better each week,” Coffey said. “No one knows what goes behind each play.”

The theater program beckons the TCC community to witness the artistry and dedication of its students.

“Through theater, we discover the extraordinary in the ordinary,” Wilde said. “It’s a journey worth taking.”
