Student Blog: Audition Season: The Most Wonderful Time of the Year
by Student Blogger: Grace Schofield - November 5, 2023

I loved this audition season. Because I finally let myself relax and have fun. Because whatever happens happens. And all I can do is go in that room and give it all I’ve got. It’s only 3 minutes of my life. And that is so exciting.

Student Blog: Respect the Tech
by Student Blogger: Austin Watts - October 31, 2023

Student Blog: Try It on Campus
by Student Blogger: Madi Spear - October 31, 2023

Seeing every aspect of a creative process made me a more empathic actor. I understand the words of a playwright and the intention of a director because I have been in their shoes. I also had special interest in musicology, so I pick up on trends within a musical landscape. In my experience, being a performer and “insert title here” has helped me remain well rounded.

by Student Blogger: Natalie Liew - October 31, 2023

Student Blog: Dancing with Myself
by Student Blogger: Grace Schofield - October 30, 2023

Feelings are so good at lying to us and tricking us. Remember why you love to dance. Remember how fun it is. Find the joy of it all. It’s hard sometimes, but I know it’s there.

by Student Blogger: Mya Bodnick - October 30, 2023

Nothing beats standing on a stage and telling a beautiful story to a receptive audience. We love the fast paced, ever changing, unpredictable environment that is our major and our industry. However, we just want a little respect for the hustle.

Student Blog: Why Music is So Important to Me
by Student Blogger: avery lakoff - October 30, 2023

Speaking for myself, I listen to music as often as I can and to me, music almost controls my emotions. That leads to why I have a collection of 24 playlists. “That’s so many how do you ever choose?” Simple; whatever mood I am in or want to be in, I play the corresponding playlist.

Student Blog: #musicaltheatre
by Student Blogger: Ellie Weaver - October 30, 2023

Social media has been entirely integrated into the theatre industry. It’s hard to find a Broadway show that isn’t active on Instagram or TikTok. Performers have taken to social media as well to advertise and create a name for themselves. As a high school performer, I have noticed both the positive and negative effects of social media’s involvement in the theatre industry. 

Student Blog: Climbing Uphill – Ways to Keep Performing When Not Cast
by Student Blogger: MJ Kirsche - October 30, 2023

Going to school or college for theatre is something meant to prepare performers for the realities of a career in the arts. Unfortunately, one of those realities is not getting cast in every show you audition for. Even in an educational theatre setting, you likely won’t be cast in every show or project you submit for– and that’s totally fine! We’ve all been there. However, just because you may not be cast in this semester's big play or musical doesn’t mean you’re out of performing for the season! Here are some ways you can keep your performance shoes on regardless of your casting status.

Student Blog: A Return to the Fall Semester
by Student Blogger: Olivia Mathis - October 30, 2023

This semester is dissimilar from any other I’ve had, because as I’m writing about my back-to-school experiences, I’m currently in New Jersey in The Conjuring, playing Cindy Perron with RWS Entertainment. I found out that I would be leaving school to do this job at the beginning of September. As soon as I accepted the offer I quickly switched into thinking about how I would tie up as many loose ends at school as possible.

by Student Blogger: Megan Howarth - October 24, 2023

I have been involved in theater for many years now, both onstage and off. Through theater, I have created long-lasting friendships and gained many positive experiences that have shaped who I am today. Looking back on my childhood, I am eternally grateful that my parents enrolled me in dance classes, acting intensives, and vocal lessons when I was younger because I found something I was truly passionate about.

Student Blog: What It's Like Playing Percussion in Musicals!
by Student Blogger: Tatiana Atehortua - October 31, 2023

I truly feel that in the theater community, I never hear musicians talking about their experiences playing in pit orchestras for musicals (plus, that we just tend to be forgotten at times). Therefore, from time to time I'd like to share my experiences as a percussion student playing in school musicals.

Student Blog: Why Your Program Needs Student Representatives
by Student Blogger: Skyler Burnett - October 23, 2023

An elected leadership position where a student serves as a voice for the program's students in faculty department meetings and receives student concerns to communicate to the faculty. A program that offers Student Representative positions is a program that strives to serve their students.

Student Blog: Sweet Start to a Semester
by Student Blogger: Madi Spear - October 23, 2023
