The Interview

All applicants to the BFA Dramaturgy/Criticism program are required to interview one-on-one with a faculty member.  There is no fixed format or list of questions, rather the interview is a conversation and an opportunity for the interviewer to learn about your theatre and leadership experiences, academic record, personal achievements, extracurricular activities and plans for your artistic future (especially as they relate to dramaturgy and theatrical/artistic criticism).  It is also an opportunity for you to get to know The Theatre School and the Dramaturgy/Criticism program, specifically.  The questions you have for us are as important as the questions we have for you.  The best preparation for the interview is to be curious.  Explore the information provided on our website and come with plenty of questions about courses, instructors, student life and anything else you would like to discuss.​​
