## Mission Statement

Theater, Dance & Media (TDM) combines the study of theater, dance, and media practices with the histories and theories of expressive and embodied culture. TDM’s mission responds to both the Report of the Task Force on the Arts’ demand “to make the arts an integral part of the cognitive life of the university,” as well as to the consistent appeal from students over many decades to have an interdisciplinary performing arts concentration. Drawing on the many resources already dedicated to the performing arts at the university, including the [American Repertory Theater](https://americanrepertorytheater.org/), the [Harvard Theatre Collection of Houghton Library](https://library.harvard.edu/collections/harvard-theatre-collection), the [Office for the Arts](https://ofa.fas.harvard.edu/), the [Harvard Dance Center](https://ofa.fas.harvard.edu/dance), the [Harvard Music Department](http://music.fas.harvard.edu/), and the [Department of Art, Film, and Visual Studies](https://afvs.fas.harvard.edu/), this new concentration offers students the opportunity to investigate the myriad ways that live and digital arts have been used to convey the breadth of stories about the human experience.
