My daughter will be attending Marymount in the fall BA Theatre Arts, Minor in Musical Theatre. She's really liked this school and is happy that she will be starting in the fall.

My daughter is also attending MMC in the fall, BFA in Dance. If you PM me maybe the girls could meet on Facebook.

congratulations to everyone who got into MMC and to those who are attending! I am starting my college search a little earlier than most, and I recently came across the program at MMC. I would really like to find out more about the BA program with the MT minor. Mostly, my questions are regarding voice lessons- are private voice lessons offered to MT students, regardless of year? Also, how are the voice teachers- are you learning a lot, is your voice growing, etc? What techniques are you learning (legit/belting...) Would you really recommend the program?

Thank you so much!

I study with Melissa Hart, who teaches/ is one of the coaches at Marymount.
She's SO great and my voice has grown so much since I started with her!

hey ok so i love MM and i got accepted into the college academically, today actually. but im kinda freaking out about the audition. i mean i have experience with auditioning but im not sure what to expect from the program in general. From some people i hear the program is not that competitive but from others i hear its very competitive. And the courses? what are these like freshman year?

Hi, my D was just accepted into MMC for fall '08 and now she will audition in January for theatre/MT. I wonder how important the song choice is for the audition. In our visit last week, they told us that Gilbert and Sullivan is probably to classical and that anything from Les Mis, Phantom, etc. is too pop opera. My D has both a belt and legit voice. Any suggestions from those who have gone through MMC audition process? What worked and/or what would you have done differently?

Hey everyone! i just got accepted academically for the fall 08 school year academically. i was wondering how is the audition process for the theatre and MT minor. Also, how are the Theatre professors?

hcpss- I don't have exact numbers but I do remember hearing on the tour that it was around a 70:30 ratio girls to boys. There is certainly a large gay community also.

Hey guys, I have a question. I want to apply to MMC next year for stage management. Can anyone tell me how competitive this program is? I have read a lot of people that are going into MT or acting, (well, it is the MT thread, sorry, I didnt know where else to post this.) I am just curious how hard it is for someone that is not going into acting, does the school still take students like me? Anyone know?

I couldn't really give you any definite numbers or anything, but when my daughter auditioned, there were definitely other students waiting that day to have portfolios looked over for their interview. It was a much smaller group than the mt/acting students, but there were at least 7 or so kids waiting with portfolios...I don't know if they had as many dates to audition/interview as the mt kids or if this was the only day. You're best calling or writing the school to ask directly.
