The M.F.A. Theater specialization in directing is designed to train directors to perform with distinction and leadership in the practice of professional theater.Many of our recent graduates are now running their own theaters, have launched successful careers in New York, the United States, and abroad as directors and teachers, and are generating a productive network for themselves and our other M.F.A. graduates. A distinctive feature of our program is that each student and the program head create an individualized two-year curriculum combining required courses with multiple electives designed to satisfy each student’s unique talents, proclivities, and aspirations.The program balances rigorous academic preparation in the history, theory, and literature of theater with intensive practical experience through on-campus productions, classroomship activity, and internships with a wide variety of producing organizations in New York. Additionally, the program supports student initiatives for credit-bearing independent study.The program is committed to supporting each directing student’s unique evolution by engaging with the bounty of resources and opportunities offered by New York City, and now, as we emerge from an unprecedented time of remote learning and practice, by engaging with those now on an even wider scale.In this two year program students will take 60 credits, 24 of which are required: four directing classes, one performing arts management class, one design class, a first year capstone one-act directing project, and a thesis production followed by a thesis paper. The remaining 36 credits include courses in theater management, theater history, dramatic structure, and dramatic theory and criticism, as well as independent study courses tailored to the individual student’s interests.
