Chicago & Anaheim Unified Audition Update:

We will be converting to a HYBRID modality for all Chicago Unified Callbacks. For those students still traveling to the event, we look forward to seeing you IN-PERSON. For those students who will no longer be attending the event in-person, we will see you via ZOOM at your previously scheduled audition time. All times for this event are CST.

We will be converting to an entirely VIRTUAL FORMAT for the Anaheim Unified event. All students are asked to retain their original callback time, and to use the Zoom link provided for your callback. All times for this event are PST.

If you are scheduled for either of these callback events, you will be receiving an email shortly outlining next steps.

If you have any questions, please contact our Admissions Specialist, Daniela Tascarella, directly at danielat1@arizona.edu.

We look forward to seeing you soon! Bear Down! ... See MoreSee Less

Exploring our reliance on digital media in this unprecedented era, MOVING BEYOND THE BOX tells the story of the stages of the pandemic through dance.

In March 2020, during quarantine at home, director/choreographer and TFTV faculty member Christie Kerr looked for new ways to connect and continue to make art. She reached out to 14 dancers from across the U.S. and sent them choreography to learn via an instructional video. The dancers, both professionals and TFTV Acting/Musical Theatre students, recorded themselves in their various locations and sent the resulting videos back to Christie. The dance videos were then edited together with snippets of media stories and sound in a virtual dance piece that unites the far-flung company of dancers in one digital space.

MOVING BEYOND THE BOX will screen in the Theatre Building Courtyard on campus at the University of Arizona via a large-scale projection installation on January 28 & 29. The screening will start at 7:30pm and play on loop for an hour.

This project has been made possible by donors to the College of Fine Arts Fund for Excellence. ... See MoreSee Less

Did you hear? We're filming the BFA Acting/Musical Theatre Showcase 2022 this weekend!

Traditionally at this time of year, our AMT seniors would take to the stage and perform live for an audience comprising invited casting directors, managers and agents. Last year we changed up the format and filmed our seniors singing and performing onstage. The resulting digital showcase was shared online, connecting our talented seniors with thousands of agents, casting directors, and other industry professionals across the U.S. and Canada. The new format was wildly successful, and we are excited to be spotlighting the incredible talents of this year's seniors in Showcase 2022!

More information Showcase will be released later this Spring. Stay tuned!

Does this mean no live audience?

In December Honda rolled out a heartwarming short and a series of national TV spots for Project Courage - directed by TFTV alum Justin Mashouf (BFA, '08). Honda partnered with Children’s Health of Orange County to create the #HondaShogo, a vehicle for kids that makes their hospital journeys a little less scary and a little more fun.

Justin Mashouf is a filmmaker and artist based in Los Angeles. His work editing specials for local Los Angeles news channel KTLA 5, has earned him 4 Los Angeles Emmy Awards, a Golden Mic Award, and Southern California Journalism Award. His award-winning film The Honest Struggle tells the story of an ex-gang chief turned devout Muslim reentering society after 24 years in prison.

Congratulations Justin! We look forward to your future projects! ... See MoreSee Less

Thanks for the support. 🙏🏼

This fall, The Scoundrel & Scamp Theatre launched a new fellowship program to support emerging playwrights and selected UA School of Theatre, Film & Television senior Linda Paola Varela as their inaugural Fellow for a four-month residency.

This fellowship looks at both the individual and the big picture of performing arts. It supports a promising playwright by pairing them with mentorship by leading artists, and in so doing aids the larger agenda of expanding the body of work by diverse voices. For this fellowship, Linda worked closely with nationally-recognized and lauded playwright, dramaturg and TFTV Faculty member Elaine Romero.

On the evening of Dec. 15, we will hear the culmination of Linda’s work over the past few months: a reading of her new short play, Crowning Glory, directed by Matt Denney, followed by a discussion with Linda, Elaine, and the artists who performed the reading. The talk will be facilitated by Associate Producer Raulie Martinez.

Featuring: Linda Paola Varela, Elaine Romero, Matt Denney, & Raulie Martinez

Showtime:
READING & DISCUSSION: Dec. 15th at 7:30pm -9pm
STREAMING: Available anytime Dec. 21st through Jan. 4th
