Theatre Minor
I'm sorry I haven't written in a while. I was crazy busy with work and then I had to go back to school. I just started my sophomore year at Grand Valley State University and am living in a great on-campus apartment with three wonderful roommates (best friend, great friend, and new friend). I have the new responsibility of being president of the Civil War Club while continuing my major studies in English - Secondary Education. After much debate I have decided to declare two minors: History and Theatre. History is a teachable minor but theatre isn't (according to the Michigan State Government) and I need to have a teachable minor for my education requirements but want to minor in theatre so that's why I've decided on two minors. I've been planning out my classes and focused my theatre minor classes on acting and a couple directing (another small passion of mine). With the theatre classes and minor declared I'm hoping to gain experience and understanding that will help me on my quest toward Broadway. I may also be able to direct plays and musicals while teaching. I always have one question in mind when deciding if something Broadway related is the right decision - will it help me in my teaching career as well? A theatre minor will help with both Broadway and my teaching so it is allowed to pass through.

Anna,
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a fantastic plan. I think you'll be able to do both. Broadway will only enrich you as a future teacher. Think of all the stories you'll have to tell your students!
Hope your 1st week back has gone well.
