Overview

Musical Theatre from Nebraska Wesleyan University, through work in the classroom, private voice instruction, and the dance studio, students learn and practice skills that are then applied practically to rehearsal and performance experiences. Students draw experience from a season that includes full-produced musicals, cabarets, and other faculty and student directed productions.

Career

Musicians play in bands, orchestras, small groups and orchestras. Bands are often commissioned to play at weddings, private parties, clubs or bars while they try to build enough fans to get a recording contract or representation by an agent. Some musicians and singers write their own music to record and perform. Production companies are experimenting with new content delivery methods, such as mobile and online television, which may lead to more work for performers. An individual with an musical theatre degree could choose from many career opportunities including:

Cruise Line Performer
Summer Stock Performer
Actor in Musical Theater
Choral Director
Church Musician
Composer/Arranger
Conductor
Film Music Editor
Night Club Performer
