About this program

The BFA Acting program at University of Hartford's Hartt School of Music is a performance-focused theatre education designed for talented undergraduates. Students receive personal attention in studio classes that progress from fundamentals of craft to advanced, polished performance techniques. The program is distinguished by its professional faculty connections—all members maintain active contacts with regional theaters, Broadway, film, and television. Located conveniently two hours from both New York City and Boston, Hartt students benefit from relationships with prestigious regional theaters including the Tony Award-winning Hartford Stage Company, Theaterworks, and Goodspeed Musicals. A unique feature is the intensive Shakespeare training program offered in England during the spring semester of the third year with faculty from the professional British theatre. The curriculum emphasizes real-world experience through guest directors, agents, managers, and casting directors who regularly visit campus, and students have opportunities for complimentary tickets to regional productions and Broadway shows.
