Summer is the ideal season for theatre students for many reasons: summer stocks, the sleep we never had time for, and of course, simply having the spare time in general. We have so much time on our hands now (unless you’re like me doing summer stock work) sometimes it may be a struggle finding ways to spend it all. There are plenty of things you can do to stay productive while still enjoying your vacation so you’re more than prepared to reenter a busy school year.

I can confidently tell you that studying and practicing multiple disciplines in and outside the classroom – arts administration, production, and performance – has made my academic career more valuable to me. If you’re like me and you’ve found yourself intrigued and interested in different areas under the performing arts umbrella, I encourage you to try them all. Even theatre professionals advise you to! The more you know and do, the more demands you are capable of meeting.
