Musical Theatre

Studying Musical Theatre at DePauw

Whether your journey leads you to Broadway or the boardroom, to the stage or the C-suite, a foundation in musical theatre can help you get wherever you want to go. By developing an extensive range of essential competencies – in dance, voice, acting, musicianship, production and more – you will distinguish yourself by your ability to perform in any number of settings.

Whether you’re studying the historical foundations of musical theatre in the classroom or spending late nights rehearsing for one of DePauw’s fully staged musicals, you will enjoy ample opportunities to expand your knowledge and refine your skills. In addition to working with experienced faculty in highly collaborative environments, musical theatre students at DePauw have enjoyed learning from guests at the top of their fields – both performers and composers – who visit campus work with students in master classes, classroom instruction, show preparation and performance.

Small classes. Big ideas.

A life-changing experience.
