I hate midterms, but I love musicals. I've been having a rough time this week with all the work and little time to enjoy things. Midterms bring me so much anxiety and it sometimes becomes debilitating. I wasn't enjoying my cast recordings, I wasn't seeing any new things, and most importantly I was not motivated to study.

Hello everyone! My name is JuJu Jaworski and I am beyond excited to be a student blogger here for Broadway World and talk to you about theatre education in my daily life

With twists, turns, bumps, and jolts, the road to college can be a rough ride.

I was only in three shows in high school, and yet they were the best seasons of my life. We had three shows a year, but I usually just auditioned for one. I didn't really consider theatre a viable option in college, I thought it would be too much of a time commitment and would not fit into my major. I was excited to pursue my other interests.

The life of music major can be very challenging. Many people these days do not realize how busy music majors are

Hi everyone! My name is Kristen Kelly and I am so excited to be keeping you updated on all things Broadway from the University of Virginia.

Hello Broadwayworld! It's Lea coming to you from Queens College. Let me be the first to officially welcome everyone back to school and welcome to the 2018 - 2019 school year.

I got a relatively late start into acting: other than a few shows during elementary school, I didn't start acting until my senior year of high school. When I went into that audition room, I was up against people who had been acting for all of high school; even a few who had been acting their whole lives.

Creating your own work while in college can open more doors than you can imagine. That silly idea you have late one night could turn into something incredible and go on to be the start of your career.

Self care displayed on social media looks a lot like this; face masks, bath bombs, a glass of wine, dessert...all small indulgences intended to pamper. And they are loads of fun. I do not deny that.

After making the big decision of which college you are going to, you are bombarded with even more decisions after you enter college. Which classes should you take? What clubs should you join?

You survived your first week. And I'm willing to bet money that you were told at least 20 times this week how to breathe.

I loved writing these blogs for you so much that I wanted to come back. So, here I am writing during my last few days of summer break.

In highschool I was always a theatre kid. That is how others labeled me and that became a part of how I identified myself. And I am passionate about theatre; however, I am also a complex human with other interests like all of you!

Here we go! It's the first week of school and things are about to get hectic.

Congrats, thespians! You did it! You survived the trauma of Unifieds. After lots of debate, you picked the program of your choice. You made the Facebook status. Your high school drama teacher congratulated you. You feel like one in a million. And then you arrive to college and meet your class for the first time and…you're no longer the special one.

Taking care of yourself and staying organized is so important in college, but it can be difficult because of the lifestyle of most college students. In your freshman year, it is easy to get overwhelmed by all the coursework, new people, new environment and multitude of options for extracurriculars, so it is essential that you take time to check in with yourself and take care of your mind and body.

Going into college, your first audition can be daunting! You might feel like you have a lot of competition, but what you hopefully feel is that you have a community that will support you no matter what.

Three years ago this week, I was moving into my Freshman year dorm at The Hartt School in Hartford, Connecticut. I was moving to a city I had never been to, to live with a person I had never met, to pursue a degree in one of the most unpredictable occupational fields. Needless to say, I was terrified.

Freshman year of college is, to put it in a metaphorical position, like a stack of disorganized papers that you have to fit into one little tiny box. It seems as if it is quite literally impossible to organize into a concise enough stack to fit into this specific box.

Finally, after all the waiting you've found yourself in your new home and are getting into the swing of things. I've been there, and I was just as crazed and excited and nervous as you are, so hopefully I can help you out a bit.

It's back to school season all around the country and for most, that means returning to school to continue working towards that degree. I'm sharing some of my biggest tips and suggestions to help get you through your first semester in your new college theatre program.

Freshman year of college is challenging and you know what? That's ok!

The summer of 2017 saw me at the end of my successful high school career. I grew up as a military child, having lived everywhere stretching from Germany to Kansas, and from where I was stationed in the hot, sticky climate of North Carolina, I had no idea how confusing and difficult my first month or so would be in college.
