17) I sang and acted in musicals in high school. Do you have this kind of activity at St. Mary's College of Maryland? As in most colleges and universities, Music and Dramatic Arts are completely different departments, with different outlooks and philosophies. And yet, every three or four years, we combine forces to put on a musical. Recent productions have included "Three Penny Opera" and "A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum." Our vocal teachers have techniques based in the traditions of classical music, but they also have ability in and knowledge of Broadway and other popular styles. People interested in musical theater are perhaps best served at St. Mary's College of Maryland by pursuing a double major (Music and Dramatic Arts). They come away with a solid and thorough training in classical music and traditional theater, and so, find themselves with a rich and varied background that widens horizons and increases post-graduate opportunities.
