<p>How is the actor’s training here? What about dance? I know it focuses on music, but do you get well-trained in acting too?</p>
<p>The dance training is wonderful. MT majors take dance with the dance majors according to each person's level of training in each discipline.</p>
<p>The acting training is good, too. I know my D has had at least 6 semesters of some type of acting class and maybe more. They have recently doubled the size of the theatre department in terms of students and faculty and I believe I read where the theatre department will move up from a "department" to a separate "school" next year. I don't really know what that means, other than it will probably have its own deans and directors, separate from the School of Music. I do believe it shows a real commitment to acting.

<p>Thanks!! That does show a true commitment to acting! I heard they have a new BFA in Acting too! Yay! Do you know anything about the new senior showcase? Is that still happening? Do you have to audition for it?</p>
<p>Yes, the showcase is happening, and you do have to audition for it.</p>
