Study Abroad at Rutgers' Conservatory at Shakespeare's Globe in London


Rutgers' Conservatory at Shakespeare's Globe in London gives serious young artists intensive conservatory training, in the heart of London, under the instruction of the most accomplished theater artists in the United Kingdom. Bachelor of fine arts (B.F.A.) program actors study at Shakespeare's Globe in London for the full third year of their program. Generally, B.F.A. designers in the first semester of their third year, and B.F.A. stage managers in the fall semester of their third or fourth year study at Shakespeare's Globe in London. Rutgers University is unique in that it is the only member of the top undergraduate conservatory training programs in America, which spends a full year abroad. Through access to the Globe's space, master teachers, scholars, and practitioners, this program fulfills the twofold mission of both Shakespeare's Globe and Rutgers University of combining the best of conservatory training and first-rate undergraduate education.

Shakespeare's Globe is an organization founded by the pioneering American actor/director Sam Wanamaker as a unique international resource dedicated to the exploration of Shakespeare's work and the playhouse for which he wrote, through the connected means of education and performance. The facility includes a faithful open-air reconstruction of the Globe Theater used by William Shakespeare for his own company and his contemporaries in the 16th century. Rutgers' Conservatory at Shakespeare's Globe in London is a program carefully designed to enhance and broaden the skills of each student, and is fully integrated with the curriculum of the department and program. The experience and knowledge gained there will provide a solid foundation for their future growth as theater artists. Acting, design, and stage management students, trained in the Globe practices, have the potential to create a unique impact on the American theater.
