In the Integrated Studies of Performance program, students receive hands-on, conservatory-style training in various acting methods, styles, and historical periods that provides students a broad understanding of acting, directing and musical theatre. A vigorous production season provides ample opportunity for on-stage experiences, and most performance majors have significant on-stage experience by the end of their first year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
