<p>My son was just accepted to COPA. We are well aware of the quality of dance training at PPU. We plan to visit the campus next month but the school is in between shows at the time we can visit so we won’t be able to see finished production. Hopefully, we can have him sit in on a class or two. We would really appreciate any views on the quality of the acting training at the school from existing students or alums. Thanks.</p>

<p>I come from a strong acting training background, and for me, it seems that the acting program is not so hot.
The acting component is very important to the curriculum at PPU, and the training is great. However, I do not see much of the product result from students in their performances on stage. I do feel that it surpasses the minimum, but I only think that it supplies the mediocre to a little above average tools for the industry. It is definitely “up and coming” though.</p>
<p>Overall, I think the program, as most (if not any), is what the student makes of it.</p>
