What do Skidmore Theater students do after graduation?
Given the fact that was are a small college offering a liberal arts education, a remarkable number of our graduates enter the entertainment profession. Quite a few of our students complete professional training programs in some of the nations best MFA graduate programs (NYU, Yale, SMU, Trinity/Brown, Cal Arts, Columbia) and acting studios. We have also sent a number of student abroad (e.g.: England and Russia) for professional study after Skidmore. In addition to the many actors, directors, designers, technicians, stage managers, dramaturgs, writers and administrators, a number of our graduates currently teach theatre at other colleges. One very exciting phenomenon is the number of active small theater companies that have been created in New York City, Chicago and Boston by Skidmore Theater alums over the years. Many of our graduates have also found success in other fields including psychology, law, medicine, publishing, etc.
