BA in Musical Theatre
Columbia College Chicago — Chicago, IL
About this program
Columbia College Chicago's BA in Musical Theatre provides a solid foundation in the triple-threat skills of musical theatre — acting, singing, and dance — within a more flexible liberal arts framework than the BFA. No audition is required for program admission. BA and BFA students share the same faculty, productions, and industry connections. BA students take foundational courses in musical theatre history, repertory, acting styles, singing workshops, dance training (ballet, jazz, tap, and musical theatre), audition classes, and professionalism workshops (contracts, unions, bookkeeping). The degree allows elective courses in other disciplines, a minor, or a double major. Both BA and BFA students have equal opportunity to audition for all 40+ annual productions.
