Student Blogger: Grace Ward

Hi there, my name is Grace Ward, and I’m so excited to be joining BroadwayWorld as a Student Blogger. I am originally from Massachusetts and a current senior at Hofstra University, where I study Public Relations & Strategic Communication, with minors in drama and musical theatre. I’ve had a blast studying what I love and finding different avenues to continue supporting the performing arts within my future profession. I recently finished an internship at Boneau/Bryan-Brown, a leading theatrical press agency, where I worked on PR efforts for shows like Mamma Mia!, Boop! The Betty Boop Musical, The Outsiders on Broadway and many others. I’ve been involved in Hofstra’s theatre scene as a performer, assistant stage manager, light board operator, PR crew member, and just this semester I was inducted into the Mu Psi chapter of Alpha Psi Omega National Theatre Honor Society. I can’t wait to share some of my favorite theatre experiences with BroadwayWorld readers, and shed light on the business of Broadway for those seeking opportunities to work in the theatre industry.
