The Dining Room and The Future

So as some of you know, I was prop manager/co-stage manager for Herricks' production of The Dining Room. Wow, what an experience. As some of you know i'm a bit of a control freak (not in the power-hungry way but in the I like being in control way) so this was interesting. But overall, I think I did a pretty good job. Props went out on time and the actors got their cues and backstage was relatively organized. And of course, the actors did a great job.

I think the most important thing I learned throughout this process is that if in the future i'm not involved in theatre in one way or another, I won't be happy. I prefer onstage, but being backstage is rather satisfying. Thus, i'm looking into programs in colleges that have "dramatic studies," a much broader approach to theatre, until I decide what exactly I want to do with my life. Hey, I made a decision. The apocalypse must be coming! But in all seriousness, I am proud of myself for coming to a conclusion.
