Student Blogger: Jules Donohue

My name is Jules Donohue. I am a Theatre Performance major in college. When I was going through the college audition process, I found the student blogs on BroadwayWorld.com and was really interested in writing my own because they helped me realize I wasn't alone. Now, I love to write about my experience in college as I go through all of the new things being thrown my way for the next four years. Join me on my journey!
