@Sonnie323 , my daughter is a sophomore at Hartt. She’s BFA Acting, not MT, but the Acting and MT kids are all friends and they take a lot of classes together. The training is excellent, and the MT program is particular has a lot of successful working alumni.
They perform a lot: each class works as an ensemble and does 2 to 4 shows per year with guaranteed casting. So it’s not a program where only certain people get cast - you’re guaranteed to be in at least 8 shows during your time at Hartt.
The MT seniors also get cast in Goodspeed’s annual Festival of New Musicals. Goodspeed is a prestigious Equity theater, so they’re guaranteed a solid professional credit on their resume by the time they graduate. They also have the opportunity to audition for other shows at Goodspeed, Hartford Stage, Capitol Classics, and other local theaters.
Feel free to ask me any questions!
