<p>princeton doesnt focus on the arts, whether its acting or classical performance. i didnt know at first if u were planning on majoring or just wanting to pursue it as an interest. at princeton im pretty sure musical theatre and most other performing arts are more pursued as an interest rather than a major, or perhaps a certificate. the performances produced by various organizations on campus are superb and incomparable to that at other universities, however, yes the lack of an actualy musical/classical department also turned my friend away. </p>
<p>if u are looking for a major in musical theatre, i dun think princeton would be rite for u because pricneton is more about pursuing it as an interest or hobby rather than producing musical geeks =P </p>
<p>i would say if u have a strong urge to do musical theatre, tisch would definitely be the best school since ivy musical theatre cant compare. NYU also has a strong overall curriculum and would satisfy ur needs for a solid education. but ultimately its up to u. i would suggest you visit ur top schools and check out the musical theatre and see what you like urself =P my friend currently attends tisch and loves it.</p>
