New Contemporary Theater BFA

I know this is the MT forum, but has anyone auditioned for the new Contemporary Theater BFA? Any idea the ensemble size they are aiming for?

Hi loveshakesmom!

I auditioned on the very first audition date, which was located in San Francisco. My auditor was the program director, Wanda Strukus, and she said they were looking for an ensemble of about 16 students.

Thanks @Tenzira15! My D auditioned on one of the Boston dates.

@tenzira15, I also messaged you, but I am a newer member so I am not sure if my messages go through.

How many people were at the session in San Francisco? My D auditioned in Boston, but there were only a handful of auditioners because the weather was so bad.

This is one of my D’s favorite programs. What did you think of it?

I loved my audition and the program is similar to a summer program I did at NYU Tisch, so the program is perfect for me!

There were only four people at my audition date.

Wow! I am surprised at how few, but that keeps me optimistic. April 1 can’t get here soon enough!

One of the other people in my D’s session just received an acceptance to Contemp Theater via email. Nothing here yet…

And D’s acceptance just came! WOOOOHOOOOO!!!

What is contemporary theater?
