A training plan with professionals from the theater world
Several theater groups are active at the university, formed entirely by students who are responsible for choosing, directing and staging their own productions. These university theater groups can participate in the Theater Training Plan directed by Liuba Cid, where they work on aspects such as directing actors, characterization, scenery, costumes, lighting and dramaturgy.
Theater directors attending the training plan will be able to participate, with the play they have been working on, in the University Theater Showcase that will take place at the Museum at the end of the academic year.

Artistic Talent Program
Participants in the University of Navarra Symphony Orchestra and Choir as well as in the Theater Training Plan can enroll in the Artistic Talent program. This program makes it easier to combine studies with artistic talent and a passion for music. Thanks to this initiative, overlapping situations between rehearsals or performances and practices, work, classes or exams are avoided. You also get credits throughout your career.
