To make it in musical theatre, you have to be able to sing, act, and dance. Many aspiring performers have two of these three skills down pat. Through our Bachelor of Fine Arts in Musical Theatre program, you can become a true triple threat.

You’ll graduate from our BFA in Musical Theatre as a triple threat, being a proficient actor, singer and dancer. You’ll also understand how to brand yourself and be prepared for the job market with a website, headshot, effective social media channels, and knowledge of how to get an agent. Before you graduate, you’ll get a chance to audition for and receive feedback from casting directors and agents during a week-long capstone symposium in New York City. You’ll be seen by influential professionals in the industry, and your auditions could lead to roles or representation. Your training here will prepare you for the following positions and graduate programs:
