| I'm a current Musical Theatre BFA freshman at the University of Arizona and one thing that is not being addressed is the other indication of how we as performers are doing other than grades.
At the end of the semester each student in our class had to meet with the entire Acting and Musical Theatre faculty member, who went down the line to tell us our strengths and weaknesses, and what they thought we needed to work on to ensure advancement in the program.
I can't speak about the students cut in the past couple of years, but from what I've been told from the upperclassmen (I know, who wants to hear more rumors but it's all I can give you) that work ethic was a major factor in why they weren't advanced.
I can definitely see why I should check this site, with all the misinformation going on - and Professor Bagwell is just answering questions, there's no need for people to try and trap her in a war of words. |
