BA in Theatre — James Madison University
James Madison University — Harrisonburg, VA
About this program
James Madison University's BA in Theatre combines pre-professional training with a liberal arts education. JMU does not offer BFA degrees — accrediting agencies describe the programme as an 'intensive BA.' Concentrations available in Performance, Design & Technology, and Theatre Education. GATEWAY PROCESS: Audition/interview/portfolio review required for all Theatre majors. 'Demonstrated ability within a particular area of theatre such as acting, design, or playwriting is wonderful, but we are just as interested in getting to know you as a person.'
