Ever wonder what a summer stock internship looks like? This summer, I’m the electrics intern at Peterborough Players in New Hampshire. I spend my days working on the upcoming shows and spend my nights in a cabin on the theater’s campus. Here’s what a typical day in my life looks like when there is not a show running and we aren’t in tech.

My name is Ella Bianchi (he/they) and I am a BA Professional Writing major with minors in Publishing & Editing and Theatre at Millikin University with hopes of pursuing a professional career in dramaturgy post-graduation. I originally entered Millikin as a BA Theatre & Performance Studies major, but my plans have shifted towards the offstage magic.

The people I have been lucky enough to meet through this program have changed my view on art as well as what it means to be a leader in a theatrical setting.

Today, I share my insider tips on acing callbacks based on years of experience in theatre, film, and modeling. From mastering material to choosing the right attire and staying mentally sharp, I've got you covered. Let's turn those nerve-wracking moments into opportunities to shine!

Adelphi University welcomed New York Theatre Workshop back to campus...It is quite weird however to be doing an internship during the summer months, in the same building I typically spend 30-40 hours a week in during a semester. But that’s the beauty of it all, really.

I am using this time off to continue my writing. As a new playwright, I am overwhelmed by the amount of ideas I have, as there are so many worlds I want to explore. When I often have a random thought, I usually write it down in my notes app on my phone. And when it comes to sitting down at my computer to write, I have multiple jumping off points!

What is a theatre program like in the middle of Arizona? Let me set the stage...

My name is Jeffrey and I am a brand new student blogger at Broadway World. I am a self proclaimed writer. English is my favorite subject and I enjoy having fun while writing. Additionally, I have loved everything Broadway from a young age. The first show I ever saw on Broadway was Beetlejuice. While watching shows is a huge part of my life, performing is an even bigger part.

Each year, my three best friends, our moms, and I find some excuse to get to NYC for a short weekend.  This year, Lauren graduated from college so obviously that means a trip to the most amazing city.  Here are some highlights and recommendations from this past trip!

It’s finally summer break! The sun is shining, the weather is warm, and the vibes are immaculate. Most people see this as a time to relax and get a break from school (which is the case for me as well). However, summer vacation also brings other responsibilities. I still make time to have fun, but most of my days are spent working at my part-time job. I work at a retail store, and while it can get exhausting at times, I enjoy it overall. It’s taught me a lot about the professional world, and most importantly, about myself.

As I mentioned in my introduction post, I am not a native to the Harrisonburg area. My hometown is Miami, Florida which is the complete opposite in every imaginable way. Here are a few of the challenges I’ve come across in my two years as a person who studies in Virginia full-time but lives in Florida. 

While I prepare for my senior year I am excited to be sharing more with you all and continuing to learn as you all learn more about me and some of the wonderful topics I'll be writing on.

Hi there BroadwayWorld! My name is Megan Frigerio. I’m a junior theater major with a concentration in performance and a music minor at James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia. I’m so excited to share bits of my life and college theatre experience with you guys over the next few months. Get to learn a bit about me in this first post!

Hi! My name is Kylien Clark; I’m a second-year student majoring in Architecture & minor in Theatre/Set Design at the University of Miami.

I love summer. I love summer time and laying by the pool and getting to hang out with my hometown friends. I miss my college pals very dearly, but it is always nice to be home for a short while.

As a humble theatre student with no legal knowledge whatsoever, who am I to say anything about this topic. 

Hello BroadwayWorld! My name is Emma Watts, kick back, grab a glass of throat coat and join me as a I kick off my summer as a student blogger! Learn what I'm up to, how I've got here, and where I plan to go in the future.

Every year theatre lovers of all ages and walks of life patiently await the Tony Awards. If other events and awards can have fun watch parties, why not theatre? I have come up with various ways to ensure you and your friends can have an “award-winning” party.

The only thing I could do was take it one day at a time. That’s it. That is all I could do.

As of last week, after our music literacy assessment on a bright Monday, we have come to the end of second year.

Rejection is never easy. You might think that after a while, it will sting less. Wrong. It will always hurt because you will always mourn the possibilities. After a thousand no's, “no” #1001 will still be hard: hard on your heart, your morale, and your passion.

As I finish out my first year of college as a Theatre Performance/MT major in New York City (omg), I am reflecting back on the best purchases I made for my time in school this year and for future endeavors. If you are going to college for Musical Theatre, Acting, Dance, Vocal Performance, etc. this list could be helpful for you!

I'm back with another post on BURNOUT. If you're a college student, or any type of student (or a typical functioning adult), you probably know what I'm talking about. Burnout is a feeling that is almost unavoidable and sometimes it sneaks up on you before you even realize it is happening...

For theatre majors specifically, integrity is what will set you apart. Of course you need to maintain academic integrity; you can’t go about rewriting Shakespeare. When performing, your own integrity, as an actor, is just as important.

Type can be a tricky topic. While it is important not to put yourself in a box as an actor, it is also smart to understand that sometimes people are going to expect certain things from you based on your appearance, your energy, and how they perceive you.
