Performing Arts at UMass Boston includes majors in music and theatre arts and a minor in dance. We invite students from across the university to pursue their interest in these fields through a course or a concentration. Audition for a play, take a studio course in guitar or modern dance, and join the University Chorus or the Jazz Ensemble.
