What are good colleges that are academically prestigious but also good for Musical Theater? I'd prefer a BFA program but BA is good too
Thanks!

Posted: 3/17/09 at 4:14pmI go to Brandeis University, where I'm double-majoring in MT (which is technically a concentration within the theatre major) and Vocal Performance (within the music major), but you could double with anything else you want. In fact, I have a friend that's doing MT and pre-Med.

Posted: 3/18/09 at 7:03amIs it common for people to double major in MT and dance?
I'm a professional. Whenever something goes wrong on stage, I know how to handle it so no one ever remembers. I flash my %#$&.

Hold on - some of you are actually spending the time and money to double major...in TWO arts degrees? Are you fuc*ing retarded? Musical Theatre AND Voice?
To the person who started this thread. Please, get at least one real degree so that you don't wake up in twelve years and wonder why you're a substitute teacher.

Posted: 3/18/09 at 1:23pmI think the last comment was directed towards me, and to be honest, if you're getting a BA from a prestigious university, it doesn't really matter what you major in. And, at least for me, it doesn't cast any extra time or money to double-major. And since I want to pursue careers in MT AND opera, I kind of need proper training in both. After I graduate, I plan on getting a teaching license (since I'm not "fuc*ing retarded"), since I have no real interests outside of the arts, and I wouldn't mind teaching if I don't make it as a performer.
