When my daughter was deciding on schools to which to apply and ultimately where to attend, one of the very appealing qualities about UArts was and continues to be its location in the heart of the dynamic and vibrant professional theatre scene in Philadelphia and the opportunities that occur as a result.

The Arden Theatre is an innovative and well respected company in the world of professional theatre. It is currently running a production of Candide that has garnered great reviews locally and elsewhere. For those prospective students exploring UArts and for those new to the school, you may be interested to know that UArts’ presence permeates the show:

Ben Dibble (MT '99, Candide), Deirdre Finnegan (MT '05, Choreographer), Eric Ebbenga (Music Director - is the MT Music Skills professor at UArts), Heather Woodward (MT '08, Ensemble), Mat Burrow (MT '08, Ensemble), Melissa Kolczynski (MT '99, Ensemble). Candide is running through October 19 for those who are in the area.
