Concerns about Dartmouth (parties/the arts)

I am a rising senior and am wondering if and/or where to apply ED. I fell in love with Northwestern, but the net price calculator results were disappointing and did not make it a feasible option for my family. My second choice was Dartmouth, as I visited over the summer with my dad (he is an alum of Dartmouth) and loved it. The NPC was very generous, and it is by far the most sensible option of my reach schools.

However, I have a few misgivings. Firstly, I am not a big partier, so the emphasis on Greek life makes me a bit worried. Will this isolate me from my peers in any way?

Secondly, I love theatre and would like to be involved with it during my college years. I do not want to pursue acting professionally, but I would like a career focusing on the business/policy side of this field. Do you think that attending Dartmouth will help me pursue a career in arts administration?

Thanks!
