IAMT - Home

The Institute for American Musical Theatre is pioneering a new approach to performing arts career preparation. Based in New York City and with a faculty comprised entirely of Broadway and commercial professionals, we specialize in musical theatre and provide intensive training and insider access to the industry.

We practice a positive approach to teaching by celebrating what is unique in each student while developing the skills of their individual artistry. That means our students get the best training in the world, don't have to wait to start their own professional career, and cultivate their joy the entire time.
