Whether it is on stage, on film, in a web series, behind the voice-over microphone or some yet undiscovered medium of storytelling, actors from Rider's BFA in acting program have the necessary skills---physical, intellectual, vocal, imaginative, and entrepreneurial ---and the passion to be successful and adaptive in today's industry. We seek to cultivate a program that celebrates, recruits, retains and nurtures diversity and inclusion in both students and faculty, as well as dismantling systemic barriers in the entertainment and educational industries.
