Theatre Arts

Alyssa Landroché is a junior in the Theatre Education program. Her passion for helping young people through theatre has led to many opportunities where she has been able to demonstrate traditional scholarship, creative work, and pedagogical projects. At present, she is developing an original Theatre for the Very Young production designed for audiences aged 0-3 years old, serving children who would not otherwise have exposure to theatre and dramatic arts. She is also currently serving as a co-researcher on a project exploring the experiences of actors who worked on the devised production: Facing Depression in Cache Valley. She has presented findings from the project in a peer-reviewed session at the American Alliance for Theatre and Education conference and has also been accepted to present at the American Educational Research Association Conference. In the past, Alyssa has developed and implemented a reader’s theatre experience for students at Ellis Elementary School that culminated in a public performance for parents. She has also worked with the Arts Bridge program to teach a drama/biology integrated lesson to schools around Cache Valley. Alyssa looks forward to continuing sharing her love of theatre and learning to young people, including her new daughter, Alice.
