"What do you do with a BA in [Theatre]? What is my life going to be? Four years in college, and plenty of knowledge, have earned me this useless degree. I can't pay the bills yet, 'cause I have no skills yet. The world is a big scary place. But somehow I can't shake the feeling I might make a difference to the human race." -Princeton in Avenue Q

It's Dumb, but Whatever
This is my first Fall in 8 years that I'm not auditioning for something. While I'll still be doing work in a theatre, I won't be acting. I'm not doing at all what I've been trained to do. It's exciting that I'll get to see a different aspect of theatre; get a more behind-the-scenes look at the people who are in the thankless roles that really make the show happen. But a big part of me is really going to miss acting. Hopefully I'll find somewhere where I can still do my thang in Seattle. Apparently it has the most equity theatres in the country, second only to NYC. Not bad at all. The one-legged dancer in me still has a few hops left in her and isn't ready to quit on that dream.
