Senior Showcase
Check out our Senior Showcase featuring our graduating Theatre and Musical Theatre performers. Each year, we celebrate our Musical Theatre Seniors with an in-person industry event at 54 Below, and we produce a digital showcase that highlights the work of our Theatre and Musical Theatre majors.
Senior Showcase provides meaningful opportunities for graduating seniors to be seen by and connect with theatres, film and television production companies, arts education organizations, casting directors, and agents.
Recent graduates from the School of Theatre and Dance program have worked as performers, managers, technicians, and designers at The MUNY, Arena Stage, Signature Theatre, Olney Theatre Company, Roundhouse Theatre, National Players, American Shakespeare Center, and on Broadway and the National Tours of &Juliet, The Outsiders, The Great Gatsby, Hamilton, Kimberly Akimbo, Swept Away, A Beautiful Noise, Sondheim's Old Friends, Elf, Company, Chicago, Aladdin, Frozen, My Fair Lady, and Miss Saigon among many others. They have also worked with experimental companies such as Elevator Repair Service and Nature Theatre of Oklahoma, among many others.
American College Dance Association (ACDA)
Each year JMU brings 16-20 students to our regional college dance conferences. ACDA provides an opportunity for our students to have their choreography and performance adjudicated by professionals in the field of dance, take a variety of classes, and see many dance performances. ACDA is a celebration of inclusive excellence within dance and we love the experience our students have in attending these four day conferences. Recent graduates and faculty have had their choreography chosen for the Gala performance at the end of the conference.
