For a person with talent who is considering a career in music or film and theatre acting, the place to study is the Los Angeles Conservatory. It is the west coast campus of the American Musical and Dramatic Academy (AMDA). Offered are four-year Bachelor of Fine Arts degrees in music or dance theatre, acting and performing arts. Two-year certificate programs are also available which include the Integrated Program, comprised of acting, musical theatre and dance; the Studio Program which is acting for stage, television and film; and the Dance Theatre Program which studies dance theatre for the performing arts.
The American Musical and Dramatic Academy was founded in 1964 in New York by Philip H. Burton, an actor and acting teacher. Burton?s idea was to create a school with pupils taught by working performing artists. AMDA is accredited by the National Association of Schools of Theatre. In the late 1970s, David and Jan Martin took over from Burton. They founded the Los Angeles Conservatory in 2003 and are the current executive and creative directors. Being close to Hollywood, the location is a natural for a school of the performing arts. Its alumni include actor Gretchen Mol.
Admission to the conservatory is by audition. Auditions are held throughout the year across the United States, Canada, in Sao Paulo, Brazil and London, England. A non-refundable fee of $50 is required. Scholarships and financial aid is available to U.S.-based students. Many AMDA alumni appear in plays and musicals on Broadway and in London?s West End.
