For anyone who has had experience with the UArts program…

I sent in my application today, and I’m just wondering how the admissions process works. Do they send out all of the letters at the same time, or do they let you know as soon as you’ve been admitted? I’m just trying to gauge when I’ll find out because if I don’t get in, I’m going to have to make some audition tapes for other places…

My daughter attended the UArts summer MT program in 2005 (and is currently a MT freshman there). My recollection is that they let you know on a rolling basis as completed apps and supporting documents are received. I know that my daughter also sent her app in during January and she received notice of her acceptance early enough so that we were able to avoid sending apps to any other summer program. Your best bet, though, is to call the summer program office and ask, to make sure their policy hasn’t changed. If you would like more info about the summer program, I’ve posted about it on the UArts summer program thread on the UArts sub-forum. Also feel free to PM me with any questions you have about the program and school itself.

Can’t seem to re-post a corrected list (keeps crashing), but the link to the Northwestern (Cherubs) program in Evanston, Illinois has changed. It is:

[NHSI</a> THEATRE ARTS](<a href=“http://www.northwestern.edu/nhsi/theatre_arts/index.html]NHSI”>http://www.northwestern.edu/nhsi/theatre_arts/index.html)

I can answer questions on that one if you’re interested.

In 2006 I did the Rutgers Summer Acting Conservatory as part of their Mason Gross School of the Arts. It was really the best experience of my life and I learned sooo much. It really prepares you for a BFA program experience, as you are busy in classes and workshops from 8:30 AM to 10:30 or 11:00 PM seven days a week. The teachers come from the BFA acting faculty, and there are classes in everything from the foundations (acting studio, movement, voice, speech, singing) to things like directing, improv and auditioning. The admission is based on audition and they accept approximately 25-30 students…it’s reasonably selective so the students in the program are extremely talented, motivated, and willing to challenge themselves…it’s a really good environment to learn!! You also get to meet students from all over the country–I made friends from Alaska, Virginia, Las Vegas, etc.
The program culminates with a presentation of scenes, songs, and a movement project.
When I did the program, there was only Acting, but I believe they just started with a Musical Theater option.
Anyway, I highly recommend this program to anyone really serious about acting and learning to become a truthful actor on stage. The training is based on Sanford Meisner’s technique, so it’d be good to look into that and make sure youare interested in his approach before you do the program.

Anyone have any info on the French Woods Festival of the Performing Arts summer programs? I am particularly interested in their circus training, but I’d love to hear from anyone who has info about ANY of their programs. My daughter is interested in a summer experience; she is a competitive gymnast with a tiny bit of experience with acting, singing, and dancing, and she’s trying to find something to put it all together. She’s 15, and will have completed her freshman year in high school.

Thanks so much for whatever you can share. Also, any other suggestions for residential, intense, athletic/performance programs would be appreciated!

soozievt · March 2, 2008, 11:37pm

Letsfigureitout…I think I can help you out. One of my daughters went to French Woods Festival of the Performing Arts for four summers, six weeks per summer. I feel I know the camp very well and would be more than happy to answer any questions you may have. A camper can design their own program there and decide what to focus on. They can take three “majors” which they take daily. My daughter was in a musical for one major, dance for another, and waterskiing for another but actually also daily took tennis. Then besides the three majors, you can take three minors which can change daily or not. Many kids are there for theater but many are not. Many are there for the full fledged music program. Actually, my daughter took circus her initial summers there as well. Your daughter, for example, could choose to be in a musical, take circus and gymnastics, or else dance. She designs what she wants to focus on. They put on about 12 full scale musicals and dramas per three week session. Again, a camper doesn’t have to be in theater. There is also a dance show every session for those taking dance and full scale concerts for those in music. The circus program puts on a circus show each session and their circus facilities are really great. What is great about FWF is that your D can really put together what she wants to focus on. My D who went there is someone who was very involved in performing arts and sports her entire life and so she was able to be on sports teams at FWF and continue in musicals and in dance (she is also a musician but did not do that at FWF). I could tell you so much more but why don’t you ask me what you want to know about. I really recommend the program for someone who is interested in either just the arts or in combining the arts with sports and other activities such as waterfront ones (my D really wanted to do waterskiing and so she was able to get all this there). Let me know how I may help. (this was not my D who is in a BFA in MT program)

Searching on CC I have found several people that have asked if anyone has been to the Broadway Artists Alliance Workshop but can’t find any responses.

ktmom · March 6, 2008, 10:53am

My D attended the BAA Winter Intensive in 2006.

llong39 · March 6, 2008, 12:12pm

Baldwin Wallace also has a one week summer intensive. It is open to rising seniors only since it focuses on preparing for you college auditions. You get lots of personal attention.

freedom_fri911 · March 10, 2008, 12:29am

I see that a lot of these programs are for current high school students. What if those of us who have graduated aren’t going to go to college next year but want to go to a summer program? How might that work out?

MTgrlsmom · March 10, 2008, 12:32am

freedom_fri911, some programs actually are for college kids as well (like CAP 21, BTP). The application deadline may have passed already, but it may be worthwile checking out.

BohemaKJ · March 10, 2008, 6:39pm
