Broadway remains a top attraction in New York City, offering musicals, comedies, dramas, and long-running hits. Productions range from small plays to multi-million-dollar spectacles. Despite changes - workshops, digital marketing, and the post-pandemic recovery - the live, shared experience of theater continues to draw audiences.
Creative writing degrees teach craft, critique, and professional habits - and they open more career paths today than in the past. They won't, however, guarantee publication, a developed voice, or steady income; those require sustained writing and real-world experience.
NYU's Creative Writing Program, based at Washington Square in Greenwich Village, combines workshop-driven craft instruction with regular public readings and city access to presses and literary communities. Undergraduate and graduate students can take workshops, publish in student journals, and attend visiting-author events.
