Acting
Our program prepares you for a career in all facets of acting—from stage to television to film. You will be well rounded through acting training, dance classes, private singing lessons, and training in movement (including stage combat). We cast you early and often in our award-winning plays and musicals, and you can also perform in films produced by our motion pictures program. Our acting graduates are working across the nation at regional theatres, in TV and movies, on and off Broadway, and in national and international touring companies.
