What surprised me about the drama course was that they’re not only training you as an actor but also as a writer, deviser, dramaturg, director, backstage member, stage manager and more. They understand the importance of being versatile within the entertainment business and do their best to teach us a vast array of applicable skills used in the industry.
My rewarding moments go to every time I showcase a performance. No matter how big or small; whether it is a public performance or in front of my classmates. The hard work and countless hours that I put into something and share it with others is a fulfilling experience.
Acting as the assistant stage manager for Olentangy Music’s Huckleberry: A Musical Adventure, performed at Chapel off Chapel, I got to experience first-hand the unfolding process of a professional-level production, from rehearsals all the way to opening night. The internship gave me the opportunity to work with and learn from industry professionals.
