*Ahem* I did correct myself, Mr. Tuttle, to say that it was voted "Number One for Great College Theatre" according to the Princeton Review.

I remember when i was almost ready to switch majors because UArts looked so amazing. It looked like it was one of the best schools. Hm, maybe I'm among the many who were fooled.

I had a friend who went to Marymount, but for dance, and she love it.

VLVB, Roger Williams has a decent program but I think the rep is that most grads end up teaching theatre. If that's what you want, there's no problem. :) Coe is extremely small, smaller than most high schools and yes, it's in Iowa so not the ideal location for theatre majors. I've never heard of Arcadia so know nothing about their drama program. Ithaca is one of the best, though, so if he's accepted there, that's the one to choose.

As for Wagner's 'rating' as the best college theatre. Princeton Review has stated that that vote was based on current college students voting on what college productions they liked. It's not a professional rating. Wagner has a decent drama program but no one who knows a lot about the calibre of drama programs across the country will tell you that Wagner's is number one.

Wagner College was given the title of Best College Theatre by the Princeton Review two years in a row. This given title refers to their theatrical productions, and let's face it, any schools theatrical productions are a clear reflection of their teaching program. And Yale University is number 7 on that exact same list, so they already know.
