<p>This is such an interesting topic, especially as the kids we know get further into the field and begin to know graduates of various programs. It was brought home for me again recently as D talked about a very talented friend who graduated from a mid-level BFA-MT several years ago and did not find work and is now continuing her education in a very well-respected MFA acting program. She’s a great singer who was never going to become a dancer and felt inadequately trained as an actress in her BFA. </p>
<p>With more and more schools offering the BFA-MT, the reality is that Plan B happens to many (most) graduates whether they plan for it or not.</p>
