Musical Theater Minor


Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Departments

College of Performing Arts Sophomores including Voice, Acting, Theater Management and Production, and Dance majors who have earned a 3.0 GPA in their major are eligible, by audition, to enroll in a range of courses (usually 15 credit hours) leading to the fulfillment of a minor in musical theater. The faculty in the Schools of Dance, Music, and Theater conduct auditions required for admission to the minor, which is to be restricted for only those students most apt to succeed in cross-disciplinary training. In order to continue through the sequence of courses in the minor, students are required to earn a grade of B or better in the initial cross-discipline courses in Voice, Dance and/or Acting normally taken in the minor during the Sophomore year.

 

 

This course of study is designed solely for students majoring in Voice, Acting, Theater Management and Production and Dance since their success in the minor is due in part to their continuing, concentrated study and growth in their individual majors. In other words, ongoing development as a dancer, actor, or vocal major enhances students’ ability to succeed in the minor.
