LTI is a resident producer of the Krannert Center, which presents the world’s greatest artists regularly, and which partners with us in fostering an important connection between the guest artists and students in masterclasses and residencies. However, Lyric Theater productions are a major creative and performance medium for students seeking many other degrees: Vocal Performance, Vocal Coaching and Accompanying, Instrumental and Choral Conducting, Acting, Dance, Theater Studies, Stage Management and Design.

Uniquely positioned in a School of Music, the BMA provides a thorough musical education and commitment to healthy vocal production which theatrically based curricula cannot. The BMA also includes students focusing on theatrical composition, directing, or writing for the stage. Students in this degree program follow a curriculum which includes substantial acting and dance instruction, and which trains the singing actor in the repertoire and techniques of all genres of sung theater. LTI offers a degree which focuses especially on sung theatre: the Bachelor of Musical Arts in Lyric Theatre.
