Anyone know!!!?

Question

Anyone know of a really good drama college? I've been looking at them and I like The New York Film Academy but I want to hear some opinions about others before I make my decision, so does anybody know? I don't care where it is or how much it costs I just want it to be really good, worth the money and the kind that once you leave your a wonderful actor. I have lots of experience I've been acting for 11 years i'm just always looking for a way to get better. I've take many classes available where I live and been in dozens of plays. I work really hard I just want an idea of a school I would enjoy and could get better in. Acting is my passion I love it more than anything in the world.

Thank you so much.

Answer 1

My friend is attending Marymount Manhattan in the fall. :) That seems like a good school!

Answer 2

Marymount Manhattan is a good school.  I would also suggest that you check out Carnegie Mellon, Northwestern, NYU Tisch School, North Carolina School of the Arts, DePaul (The Theatre School), and Kent State.   These schools have excellent programs, but you must correspond and visit (ideally) any school to see if it is the right fit for you.

Take wings!

Answer 3

If you really want a good education and don't care how much it costs then why not consider Juilliard or NYU?

They are excellent and have excellent reputations. When you graduate from one of those schools it will be easier for some casting directors and agents to want to look at you. And what's more, you will most certainly have a good education.

Also, don't neglect the business side of acting. That can be just as important as learning the craft itself. There are a lot of good actors who don't get much work, because they don't know how to get themselves seen.

At any rate, have a look at this page on my website for aspiring actors. It has 23 links to pages that have to do with starting your acting career.
