• Drama Student Life

    Student Life

  • From the moment you set foot on campus, you will be immersed in a creative community of legendary teachers, mentors, and students with a range of passions and interests who are ready to collaborate. Find a new home in a diverse and vibrant collective of artists, scholars, activists, and innovators.

  • Imagine living in the heart of one of the world's most creative communities. Simply walking outside of your dorm or classroom brings you face-to-face with important and innovative artists and performance spaces. You'll find opportunities to perform at legendary venues and in new spaces. Gig, perform, create, audition, collaborate — the opportunities are endless and yours to take as you chart your course as an artist and performer.

  • Our world-class performing arts building, Arnhold Hall, is designed for artists of all kinds, with state-of-the-art practice rooms, recording facilities, sound booths, ensemble classrooms, adjustable performance spaces, and percussion classrooms. The Bank Street facility, home of our MFA programs, has a black box performance space with state-of-the-art sound and lighting systems.

  • Located in the heart of New York City's Greenwich Village, our urban campus places students at the center of one of the world's most vibrant and diverse arts communities. In our residence halls, dramatists live with sociologists, anthropology students with jazz musicians. Our on-campus residences extend from Greenwich Village to Chelsea, offering students the opportunity to live and learn in a nurturing, supportive, collaborative environment and make friends for life.
