A four-year program combining the principal classes of the Bachelor of Music Voice Studies with Theatre classes in acting and improvisation, dance, and movement. This program is designed to train students for a "triple-threat" career in the performing arts by providing a solid foundation in academic, vocal and stage skills.
The Music and Theatre departments collaborate in offering the BA Combined Honours Music and Theatre Program. In this curriculum, the principle classes of the BMus voice program are combined with the BA Theatre classes in acting and improvisation, dance and movement.
To qualify for graduation, a student must participate in a staged musical presentation, either as an integral part of a theatre production, opera workshop, or in an ensemble recital. A maximum of five students will be selected each year. To qualify for the second year of the program a student must successfully gain a place in Theatre 2800 at the end of the first year. The program will train the "triple-sensation" undergraduate to advance toward a professional career in musical theatre.
