@theaterwork - I am totally “outing” myself, but I got my MFA from Kent State. This was a few years back, but their MT program is top notch. My gut tells me that KSU is the strongest program on your list, right now
Also, @kategrizz is your daughter at Porthouse? If so, awesome! Was she in Night Music? I heard great things, and hear Violet is STUNNING.
