<p>My daughter wants to spend Summer 2012 at a US university summer theatre
program. We live in London, but are US citizens. She will have just finished
her sophomore year in 2012.</p>

<p>Can you recommend some top summer theatre programs that will take "rising
juniors"? Also, how competitive are these programs to get in and do they
require auditions? She is a pretty good actress and has done courses here at
RADA, Central School, etc.</p>

<p>Thanks,</p>

<p>Jack</p>

<p>JackUK,</p>

<p>Here’s a very very good and intense program at UCLA –> [Acting</a> and Performance Institute - OVERVIEW](<a href=“http://www.summer.ucla.edu/institutes/Acting&Performance/overview.htm]Acting”>http://www.summer.ucla.edu/institutes/Acting&Performance/overview.htm)</p>

<p>8 units of UCLA college credit, excellent instruction, live in the dorms, walk to many restaurants and movies all equals a fun and very intense summer!</p>

<p>Best,
Wheaty</p>
