The Musicophile’s Guide to the Tisch Theatre Studies Curriculum

A final question you might ask: what do music fans and Tisch’s Theatre Studies curriculum have in common? For all the Tisch Drama prospective applicants out there who might identify as musicophiles, I thought it might be helpful to distill some of the Tisch Drama Theatre Studies classes into a musical form to give you an idea for each course’s design. Or its “vibe” if you will.

Here are some personal favorite Theatre Studies courses that fellow Drama students and I have compiled if you are interested in learning more about Tisch Drama’s Theatre Studies curriculum:
