Ask me about USC Theatre!

<p>Hi! I’m going to be an entering freshman this fall, BFA Acting, and I’m so glad I found this forum because I have TONS of questions! Ok, here goes:
I know BFA’s are not permitted to take a Musical Theatre minor. How easy is it as a BFA to take the same musical theatre classes, do shows, etc to get involved? Are voice classes available to theatre students?
The BFA program is super structured and intense. Does that make it difficult to do shows? Would it be hard to balance class, rehearsals, and, say, work-study?
I’m moving to LA from a small town in AZ, and I’m wondering what kind of environment exists in different dorms, around campus, etc. It’s looking like I’m gonna be in the IRC next year, if you could tell me anything about what living there is like.
Thank you so much, and I’ll post more questions if I think of them!</p>
