My concern is that on a tour through their Black Box Theatre… the seats were all torn by what appeared to be poking with sharp objects and everything was in a state of dis-repair. Very depressed environment.
I asked one of the current students… He said “you have people that really care here about their acting and a whole lot more that they seem to accept for the money…either check or Pell Grant… it makes for a most unusual theatre group and they seem to charge for everything. Beware of the costs and additional costs”. That was enough for us as other students chimed in with factual evidence to concur during our second visit.
Marymount needs to get with it if they want to succeed. Some of us actually work more than one job & our student’s work and sacrifice to pay for their college education!!!
