Theatre tech people - ISO strong programs in props?

Does not seem to be lots of traffic in this forum in general – let’s see about theatre tech folks. :slight_smile:

Anyone have info on props programs at the BFA program schools? We know about UNCSA’s specialty but do not know of others.

Thank you!

Props design often falls under scenic design (along with scenic painting, set dressing, etc.), so I’d say try checking out some of those.

Check out CalArts

NCSA is a great school and has some prop legends at it. Also OU has a great grad program for props. I teach at Pace University in NYC and we have a good program. I would look at doing an internship as a sophomore and junior as well as your senior year to get a great foundation. I head the props department at the Public Theater and we have a great summer program. Juilliard also has a great internship program headed by Kate Dale. Best of luck out there.

Thanks @Jayduck9 ! My D (new member of Class of 2023 at UNCSA) follows you on Instagram and we listened to a Silk Flowers and Papier Mache Hearts podcast featuring you on our drive to Winston-Salem earlier this month! :smiley: Your summer program is on her hope-to-go-there list!

ETA: I am going to send you a PM
