College Park, MD— The National Academy of Chinese Theatre Arts (NACTA) will join the University of Maryland’s (UMD) School of Theatre, Dance, and Performance Studies (TDPS) for a three-week collaboration beginning October 28th that focuses on sharing each culture’s unique approach to theatrical production and theatre technology. Two junior professors and one graduate student from NACTA will spend three weeks in the Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center on the UMD campus working side-by-side with TDPS faculty, students and production staff.
