Just a stone’s throw from Broadway and the Metropolitan Opera, Sacred Heart University is making a name for itself as one of the premier performing art schools in the US. In addition to its formal performing arts and a music minors, it have been attracting students from around the world with its dynamic Theatre Arts Program as well as a number of Instrumental and Vocal Ensembles.

Theatre Arts Program

Centered around the 776-seat Edgerton Center for the Performing Arts, Sacred Heart University’s Theatre Arts Program is designed to showcase talent and build skills. Whether you want to be an actor, singer, director, designer, or technician, the school’s productions are open to all students, irrespective of major, and provide students with the chance to try indulge their artistic impulses.

Instrumental Ensembles

Like its theatrical productions, Sacred Heart’s instrumental ensembles are open undergraduate and graduate students alike, regardless of major. Encompassing groups as diverse as a marching band, a jazz ensemble, and a winter guard, all students are encouraged to audition. In so doing, students have the opportunity to develop and showcase their talents with likeminded students and faculty who share their passion.

Sacred Heart’s vocal ensembles likewise run the gamut and include both concert and liturgical choirs. Through work with the school’s dedicated music faculty, students have the opportunity to showcase their vocal abilities in a friendly and nurturing environment. In addition to the personal rewards, participants stand to gain in other ways. All vocal ensemble participants can earn one credit towards their degree per group and may be eligible to receive tuition assistance through Choir Grants.

    Your university seems like a great institution to be in. Do you happen to include dance in your curriculum? And how many students are allowed in each class?
