Acting is Doing
We offer an individualized and collaborative learning experience where you can grow and reach your unique potential and transform from a student into an actor that works.
The New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts will no longer offer performing arts training as of August 31, 2025
After 45 years of providing high-quality performing arts education and training to thousands of students in musical theatre, film and television, content creation, and theater performance, The New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts (NYCDA) has made the difficult decision to teach-out its remaining students, and to no longer offer performing arts training as of August 31, 2025. Our 2025 Summer Intensive Programs in June and July, and our Meet The Industry Programs in July and August will be held as scheduled this summer, and our current Spring Start cohort will complete their First Year of the program as scheduled.
