If you are a passionate actor, committed to being a hard-working artist invested in sharing stories about what it is to be human, and if you are committed to confronting your life and work habits that restrict growth to expand your sense of self, who you are, and look beyond yourself to others, develop your skills, and awareness, then we are looking for youThe journey through our Master of Fine Arts program is a two-year rigorous experience within a cohesive cohort of eight to 10 M.F.A. actors. The acting specialization offers our students a uniquely individual and collective journey through an advanced and integrated curriculum of exciting courses that: train the actor’s instrument holistically for stage and screen acting; and teaches the actor to value a dedicated and integrated practice of techniques and skills that empower the actor to live in present reality, under the pressure and expectations of performance with ease and vulnerability, and to behave spontaneously as recognizably human. Our faculty, all respected New York professionals, inspire and support individuals to invest in a lifelong practice of techniques and skills.Our foundational and sequential courses of Acting (stage and screen), Voice & Speech, and Movement work together to identify and redirect habitual behaviors, release imagination, and structure a coherent technique that allows actors to bring their full selves to the work. Additional classes are introduced and determined by the specific needs of each cohort and each semester culminates with an original solo performance rooted in the actualization of the power of the Voice. The final semester of training concludes with a Business ClassIndustry Showcase collaboration.The Department of Theater produces approximately eight departmental productions per academic year, and graduate students receive the unique opportunity to perform once per semester in a fully realized production, with the exception of their first semester.
