This book uses a mixed methods research study of the career experiences of theatre graduates in the U.S. to provide data on employment patterns and job satisfaction.

Using a population of over 1000 participants, this study examines where graduates were working, how their careers had changed over time, which skills acquired with their theatre degree were being used in their current employment, and whether they believed their course of study was worth the financial investment given their current circumstances. Evidence from this study indicated that a theatre degree provided many of the skills the employment market is currently seeking and that theatre graduates were gainfully employed in multiple sectors of the economy.

This book provides important data-based, field specific information for chairs, deans, provosts, and politicians, as well as students and parents, at a time when arts and humanities departments across the country are under threat of elimination.
