Virginia Intermont College


The sights and sounds, the smell of costumes and makeup, the thrill of performing that gets in your blood. If only it weren't for that nagging voice that reminds you that you can't eat magic, or live on love alone.

If you are not willing to give up what you love, but success is part of what you expect from your education, we have the answer. Our Theatre Arts program will give you the knowledge and skills you need to succeed, allowing you to continue to make that magic happen.
