University of Wisconsin- Madison

<p>Does anyone know about the UW Madison Theatre program? Their website lists Musical Theatre as an "area of interest". The curriculum looks fairly comprehensive. They also have a good dance program and music department. I don't know if non music majors can take classes, though. The performance facilities look nice, also.</p>

<p>UW Madison has never been known in these parts for their theatre program. My S had a good high school friend who started there in vocal performance but didn’t stick with it. (Really didn’t like the program and was also interested in health sciences which is the route she ended up going). She did, however, audition for the musical her junior year and nearly got the lead even though she was a bio major. So I think the opportunities are wide open. They do have decent instrumental music programs, however.</p>
