About the B.F.A. Acting Program
The University of Minnesota/Guthrie Theater B.F.A. Acting Program offers an undergraduate training curriculum that leads to a bachelor’s degree in fine arts. In a unique actor training partnership, the University of Minnesota College of Liberal Arts combines outstanding academic preparation with the artistic vision of the internationally known Guthrie Theater.
The program is dedicated to developing the mind, body, voice and spirit of the actor/artist/scholar. We provide our students with a variety of skills essential to realize the dynamics of performing text of classic stature. The skills acquired during the exploration of classic text will be applied to contemporary literature drawn from the world repertoire as well as emerging dramatic forms. Our students are devoted to the pursuit of academic and creative study. We cultivate the actor/artist/scholar by providing a unique curriculum rooted in four guiding principles:
• An expansive liberal arts education
• An intensive studio-training curriculum, which is committed to the integration of voice, movement and acting within a wide range of styles
• An eclectic performing arts experience with a focus on live theater
• A dynamic partnership between the Guthrie Theater and University of Minnesota
