I have a lot going on this semester, which has been both a blessing and a curse. On the one hand, I’m finally taking classes I’ve been looking forward to, I have not one but two wonderful jobs that I love, and I have been directing Little Women this semester, which has been a huge milestone in my college career. On the other hand, there’s still only 24 hours in the day. I will admit, managing my full schedule has been a challenge because time management is not my strong suit, but I have discovered tools that have helped me improve my time management skills over time.

Recently, I've had to step back from theater which was fine until I went to see a show. Faced with a sense of absence, I reflected a bit and remembered how theater isn't just experienced on a stage.

In todays blog, we discuss the two main steps that you need to take in order to acquire the sustainable funding for your visual and performing arts programs.

Playwriting is a passion of mine that I hold very dearly, and plan on keeping in my life into my professional career. And of course, with this comes the dreams of having my work published and produced regionally, something that’s always been a dream of mine. These past two months, I felt a skyrocket for my career when for the first time I opened my email inbox to a formal rights request for one of my short plays.

Why do we create art? This broad yet poignant question is always plaguing the minds of performing arts practitioners, especially in light of trying and divisive global events. For some, art serves as a pure creative outlet, but for me, it has become a means to bridge performance and philanthropy, creating a tangible impact beyond the arts sector.

Each student’s approach to staying sane in the busiest times of the year is different, and it’s important to find the cocktail that works for you. Through a combination of proactivity, digital organization, and creative outlets, I’ve managed to achieve an array of goals throughout my collegiate education.

Student blogger Piper Greisl explains how she balances attending university full-time with a job at a local theatre, rehearsals for shows she performs in, and more.

Thanksgiving is one of my most favorite times of year. I love being able to see my family, to maintain our traditions, and to really slow down and consider what I am grateful for. I recently saw a TikTok talking about being grateful and it completely shifted my perspective.

Those are just a few of the fun things to do around Cape G. I really do like our little college town. It’s been a lot of fun exploring.

At the end of October, I was given the incredible opportunity of traveling with a few other theatre students at my school to New York City, where for a whole weekend we lived the life of off-Broadway actors living in NYC.

Not a theater major, but a theater lover at heart! Join me as I share how my passion for theater and my journey through law school intersect, from mock trials inspired by fairy tales to finding support in amazing friends.

It’s been a very hectic week with lots of exams and assignments, but even in stressful times, it’s important to practice gratitude. In honor of Thanksgiving, I figured it would be appropriate to write about what I’m thankful for.

In this blog post I discuss the perks and pitfalls of studying theatre abroad!

In this post, I go through the five things that help me to stay focused and motivated. As the weather gets colder and the desire to do nothing increases, it gets harder and harder to get work done, but we must do what we need to push through!

In todays blog, we discuss how you can find ways to build and manage that healthy balance between the crazy schedule of the 'theatre life' and the workload of a student.

My plans for this semester are a mix of the familiar and the new. I’m holding onto the things that ground me, but I’m also making space for unexpected paths!

When I get overwhelmed with assignments or the ever present anxiety of forgetting things, my solution has always been a sticky note. A clear list of things on fun colored paper always eases my mind, if only a bit. Unfortunately, one is not quite big enough to hold 4-6 syllabi... or is it?

My days are packed with classes, tech theater, and lab work, but after some trial and error, I've found a few strategies that help keep me organized.

Theatre kids are no strangers to busy schedules. I feel like around every corner there’s a new show, a new scene to memorize, a new song to learn, another audition to prepare for, etc. Scheduling becomes a feat one must master through communication.

I am no stranger to a full schedule in the realm of theatre, usually finding myself engaged in several projects at once. My current calendar, for better or worse, is no different.

Declaring your major can be very daunting, especially when you aren’t sure what you want to study. As someone who’s had many different career aspirations throughout my lifetime, I eventually figured out what interests me. It was a long journey, but now I can successfully say I declared my major in something I am passionate about.

Over the past several years, TikTok has become one of the most used apps globally. Personally, the app has become my main hub for doom-scrolling: I am able to consume hours of media and retain virtually zero information. While I am not proud of this “talent,” I have come to understand that it is a shared tendency among many of my peers.

I may be in my 16th and final year of schooling, but that doesn’t make back to school any less fun (or any less busy). Juggling classes, a job, and theater is a feat not for the faint of heart, but it’s very rewarding.

As theater lovers and aspiring industry professionals, staying musically literate is extremely important. You can learn just as much watching live productions as you can in class, not to mention it’s a great way to support your local arts community. However, being a patron of the arts isn’t exactly college-budget friendly, so I’ve compiled a list of ways to support the arts and stay musically literate on a college student budget.

I am taking a German class while studying abroad in Austria, and one of my recent assignments was to use the language in real life. I went to a local theater, the Josefstadt, and bought a ticket to an upcoming show!
