Student Blog: A BFA Christmas Wishlist

Hi everyone! My name is Ruby and I just finished up my first semester of college in my BFA Musical Theatre program! As the holidays are approaching and wish lists are being made, I thought I would share some things that might be smart to put on your Christmas list this year! All of these items are perfect for anyone going through auditions, performances, or college programs! 

Wishlist:

  • Belt Box
    • Muffles singing
    • Perfect for warming up in hotel rooms for auditions
  • Mypurmist Vocal Steamer 
    • Warms up vocal chords with direct steam 
  • LaDuca gift card or shoes!
    • These shoes are worth the investment! I saved up for mine and asked for gift cards to cover the rest. They are so supportive, comfortable, and fun to dance in! 
  • Audition outfits
    • Ask for outfits that make you feel confident being yourself! It can be anything that shows off your unique personality!
  • Sondheim for Singers sheet music book
    • Available for all voice parts
    • A collection of all of Sondheim’s works 
    • I love finding songs in these books for auditions! 
  • Audition bag with your name on it
    • It's super important to have a bag that carries everything you need! Make it unique in some way so you don’t misplace it! 
  • Backpack with a shoe pocket
    • I love this backpack because it keeps my dance shoes separate from any food or pens that might be in my backpack. They don’t get lost or ruined in this bag! 
  • New leotards and dance clothes 
    • My favorite dance clothes come from Crz Yoga
    • They have the same function and quality as lululemon but for a more affordable price! 
    • The butterluxe leggings are perfect for dance class! 
    • Get 10% off with code RUBYWOLTER
  • Cute mugs for tea 
  • Hooked” by Sutton Foster 
    • This book was my favorite gift I got last year! It is a brilliant collection of life lessons from Sutton herself that connects to various crafts she made along her artistic journey! 
  • Jason Samuels Smith Bloch Tap Shoes (pictured above) 
    • These are my favorite tap shoes to dance in! They are supportive and have an awesome look! They also make clear and clean sounds. 

I hope these ideas have been helpful! Have a wonderful holiday season!
