I've been thinking a lot about college lately as I'll be a senior in HS this upcoming year. I'm thinking about double majoring with one major being Theatre. I'm not sure if I should concentrate in Acting or Musical Theatre.
Here's the thing.....I have VERY little dance training and I can't dance very well. I can do basic movement and those classic theatre steps, but I'm fair at best. Dance theory is a whole other issue....I couldn't name a step if you asked me...(with the exception of like....pirouette[sp?], ball-change, etc.) I'm totally willing to learn and give it my best try, but I'm not very confident in my ability to learn to dance. I'm uncoordinated and klutzy.
I'd really love to concentrate in Musical Theatre because its where my heart truly lies. The school that is my number one choice at the moment is Temple University. I'll be getting more info on how much dance knowledge is required to audition for their department, but in the mean time...I'd like your opinion. Should I just forget Musical Theatre?
