<p>I’ll throw in the lesser known school. Take a look at Coastal Carolina University. They offer a BFA in Acting and one in Physical Theatre. The acting training is top notch. Acting majors can spend a semester at the Accademia dell’Arte in Italy, while PT majors spend their junior year studying there. Acting/PT majors can take voice and dance classes. All BFAs audition for all productions, and there is cross casting, so you have MTs performing in plays and Acting majors performing in musicals. Class size is small. Usually they look for an Acting/PT class of 10. The entire department is small, so you can’t get “lost in a crowd.” </p>
