.No where else in the world can you find the range of disciplines in one school. Over the last 50 years as we forged new programs, built our home in New York and expanded to our global academic centers, institutes emerged. Each are built with shared values, common goals, and a priority for putting students first. The result – a place where artists and scholars create the future. Across the performing arts, Tisch Drama alums are acting, dancing, singing, designing, production managing, writing and directing plays, creating “must see” new work, building the next hot new theatre company, and more. Others are applying theatre in non-traditional places like community centers, health care institutions, and prisons.
