Theater

The 466-seat Watson Theater and the 100-seat Black Box Theater in the Elizabeth Boatwright Coker Performing Arts Center offer students a variety of theatrical experiences in performance and technical areas.

The Watson Theater's proscenium stage allows for the production of large-scale student theatrical pieces. The Black Box Theater houses more intimate productions, experimental work and student-directed work, for which a variety of seating configurations can be constructed.

In addition to student work, the College brings in performances by individual actors and professional theater companies.

Coker College upholds and defends the intellectual and artistic freedom of its faculty and students as they study and create art and live performances that explore the full spectrum of human experience. The College considers such pursuits central to the spirit of inquiry and thoughtful discussion at the heart of a liberal arts education.
