Within the Oaks Christian Performing Arts Department, we seek to possess a comprehensive and robust curriculum taught from a Christian worldview which not only reaches back into the rich history of theory, performance practice, and pedagogy, but also looks toward the future, equipping and preparing our students to be masters of their art. Finally, it is our hope that our students will become effective leaders in their respective art forms, and will take their skills, passions, and talents into a hurting world, and be a healing agent of creativity to all whom they encounter.
The Bedrosian Pavilion, a $15 million, 28,000 sq. ft. multi-purpose performing arts center, houses a 500-seat theatre, a blackbox theatre, dance studios, orchestra and choir rooms, a TV broadcast studio, costume labs and set construction space.
