I'm impressed at the diversity of Fordham. There's a variety of types and styles, and ways of thinking. It feeds into a very refreshing, creative energy... And the camaraderie between students in the Theatre Program is inspiring.
-JoAnne Akalaitis, five-time Obie Award winner

The high quality of training shows in the students' work, which is of the caliber of a graduate program. In last year's senior showcase, I saw an individual approach to character, which demonstrated great inner depth.
-Julie Tucker, Tucker/Meyerson Casting
