BU theater program is good, but certainly not the best -- we have had famous alums like Jason Alexander, Geena Davis, and Julianne Moore. I'd say the emphasis is more on the craft than performance. On campus there are TONS of opportunities to get involved acting in student films, musicals. I would look into another major and minoring in theater. ----- The School of Theatre at Boston University offers a high-level of instruction in the theatre arts. The school offers the Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) and the Master of Fine Arts (MFA, as well as Artisan Certificates for production students. Students can major in acting, theatre arts, theatrical design and production, stage management, theatre education, and directing. The main operating facility for the School of Theatre is the Boston University Theatre - located on Huntington Avenue (Avenue of the Arts) in Boston. It has strong relationships with other theatre organizations in the Boston area, most notably the Huntington Theatre Company.
