The Conservatory at Webster is a professional training program for acting, musical theatre, directing, design, technical theatre and stage management. Located in St. Louis, the Conservatory has been training theatre students for the professional world for over half a century.


We select our students through auditions and theatre festivals nationwide. We also host auditions here on campus. All of our candidates for admission must complete the audition/portfolio review process to be considered.


One of the distinguishing elements of Webster's Conservatory is its integrated association with two professional companies on our campus: The Repertory Theatre of St. Louis and Opera Theatre of Saint Louis.
