BWW Blog: DEAR EVAN HANSEN's Will Roland on Playing Jared, Passion for Acting, & Exiting the Showby Guest Blogger: Cassandra Hsiao - May 14, 2018 Dear Evan Hansen's Jared Kleinman is the mastermind partly responsible for the web of lies Evan Hansen weaves about being friends with his departed classmate, Connor Murphy. Equipped with digital savvy and verbal barbs, Jared provides the levity in the show, allowing audiences to view from a comedic standpoint the absurdity and heartbreak of Evan's situation. Actor Will Roland shares many things in common with his character-his humor, word play, quick wit-but one thing he thankfully no longer has in common is Jared's mean streak. (more...)

BWW Blog: LOBBY HERO on Broadwayby Guest Blogger: Cassandra Hsiao - April 18, 2018 Life moves in circles. This sort of cliche isn't the message of Lobby Hero-rather, the play in itself is emblematic of the spirit of zeitgeist, the kind where unintended artistic choices turn out to be eerily prescient. (more...)  BWW Blog: And the Oscar Goes to...by Student Blogger: Nolan Robinson - April 17, 2018 One great part of Northwestern is that it is a campus filled with people who have a plethora of stories to tell: lessons they've learned, tips and tricks they've found useful in surviving college, and crazy and exciting adventures they've been able to experience in their life.

BWW Blog: Acting - A Leap of Faithby Guest Blogger: Cassandra Hsiao - April 4, 2018 For the next month or so, I'll be memorizing lines and living from rehearsal to rehearsal. I'll be collaborating with actors older than me, actors with countless years of experience under their belt. I'll be digging deep into three original one-acts and studying videos of goth girls, Sheldon Cooper, and Zooey Deschanel to help me step into the shoes of my respective characters. And if I'm honest, I'm a little nervous. (more...)  BWW Blog: Finding Art in the Big Appleby Student Blogger: Nolan Robinson - April 2, 2018 This Spring Break I was fortunate enough to travel to a city very close to my heart but one that I had only encountered through television and movies and books, most notably, the second season of Glee. This past week I traveled to New York City for the first time for seven full days and my eyes lit up with the eternal lights around me and the feeling of the Big Apple was so overwhelming that all I could do, upon seeing the city from my plane and standing in the middle of Times Square for the first time, was shed a couple tears.

BWW Blog: Originally From MILTONby Student Blogger: Mia Dedear - March 30, 2018 With rehearsals well underway at the University of Texas, the illustrious team of 'Milton, MI' continues to persist in the delightfully challenging experience of creating a brand new play. I took a moment to chat with Sophia Quiroga, who portrays a struggling poet named Leah, and Dani Consoldane, who steps into the role of Amber, a sprightly college student. These two leading ladies shared insight on their journey of building the universes and personalities of Leah and Amber. (more...)  BWW Blog: What Do You Do with a B.A. in English?by Student Blogger: Monique Hebert - March 30, 2018 As an English major I learned about the craft of writing which provided a foundation for my playwriting. I spent four years in my undergrad analyzing the great American and British poets and prose writers. I got a B.A. in English Literature instead of Creative Writing, and at first after I graduated I was mad at myself for not taking more creative writing courses. That was until I realized how valuable the skills are that I gained from reading a bunch of literature. I wasn't sure what I was going to be doing with those skills after I graduated, but here I am four years later and using these skills everyday when I write. (more...)  BWW Blog: Summer Plansby Student Blogger: Kyle Mason - March 30, 2018 This has been quite the exciting last week! I finally have solidified all of my summer plans and couldn't be more excited.

(more...)  BWW Blog: I Was A Part Of That One Terrific SISTER ACT! The Casting Callby Student Blogger: Griffin DeVries - March 22, 2018 It's a custom for my troupe to announce the upcoming season at the end of the year banquet. The tension in the room was thick as everyone waited in anticipation. The season was always something that was announced last. And finally, my teacher walked on stage with a folded paper in her hands and announced the last production of my senior year was Sister Act: The Musical. (more...)  BWW Blog: Hitting the Ground Running Post-Spring Breakby Student Blogger: Kyle Mason - March 22, 2018 It was so nice to spend a week home sleeping in every day and catching up with friends and family, but I'm happy to be back in the swing of things here in Bloomington.
