The purpose of the Repertory Season is to facilitate a professional experience, as students in their graduating year work with professional designers, stage managers, production companies, and benefit from the response of real audiences.

Located at Pace’s New York City campus and housed within the Dyson College of Arts and Sciences, the three-year MFA program offers three distinct tracks: Acting, Directing, and Playwriting. The curriculum is built on the philosophy and the tradition of the Actors Studio and the foundation of the Stanislavsky System. Acting, directing, and playwriting, students are trained side-by-side and guided by the pedagogical approach of our distinguished faculty, toward the discovery of their unique voice and full manifestation of their talent. Upon graduation, students receive the title of ‘Finalist’ at The Actors Studio and are invited to attend sessions there for one post-graduate year prior to auditioning for a lifetime membership. Directing and Playwriting students are also invited to participate in the Playwright/Director’s Workshop in New York for their post-graduate year.
