Our curriculum is flexible and allows for the changing demands of the profession and our faculty members and students. We believe that actors come in many shapes and sizes and that no one career or training goal applies to every student. Our classes are taught in both the semester-long tradition and in short, intensive blocks that allow for concentrated study in a particular area of specialization.
