The Student Board has no life anymore! What is everyone up to?!

Hey guys. So I used to frequent this board a lot, but it's been a while. The student board used to be filled with fun threads and exciting people. Where did everyone go and what is everyone up to!!

I'm a junior musical theater major at The Boston Conservatory this year, I'm currently the intern at Rock of Ages and I'm working on bringing Broadway Bares (for Broadway Cares) to Boston!!

Come back everyone!

re: The Student Board has no life anymore! What is everyone up to?!

I agree. The Student Board has been pretty barren for the past few months. I think that we should all introduce ourselves too re: The Student Board has no life anymore! What is everyone up to?!

I'm Justina and I'm a junior theater major at Temple University. I'm currently in production for Oklahoma! as Dream Laurey at an equity dinner theater in Delaware. And next month I'll be doing a short run of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer as Becky Thatcher in Ocean City, NJ.

Drama, that's amazing that you're interning at ROA! What a fantastic experience that must be!

re: The Student Board has no life anymore! What is everyone up to?!

Hello all! My name is Claire and I'm a junior in high school. Although I'm not in any productions at the moment, I am taking a musical theatre dance class and we're working on the title song of Thoroughly Modern Millie. It's a great class, but I feel so lazy and useless when I'm not working on more theatre things. I'm stressing over whether or not I'll be able to get into college. It kills me that there are so many great opportunities that other people my age are a part of, and I'm just floating around.
"You have two kinds of shows on Broadway – revivals and the same kind of musicals over and over again, all spectacles. You get your tickets for The Lion King a year in advance, and essentially a family... pass on to their children the idea that that's what the theater is – a spectacular musical you see once a year, a stage version of a movie. It has nothing to do with theater at all. It has to do with seeing what is familiar.... I don't think the theatre will die per se, but it's never going to be what it was.... It's a tourist attraction." Stephen Sondheim

I was going to post this thread on here.

This board is like half dead.
I think we need to post new/another "Which School Has the Best BFA in MT?" thread.
BTW, my life, pretty much sucks so far.
I am doing Beauty and the Beast (not Disney). Well, rehearsal hasn't started yet.

Hi! I'm a junior at Brandeis U (yay 2011) where I am a double-major in music and theatre and a minor in education. I am currently working as a petition carrier, but that job should only last a few more days. I have been auditioning for summer shows and broadway shows but haven't gotten a single callback, probably because of my lack of a professional headshot and minimal acting experience. My last show was an opera on Governor's Island, which rehearsed less than two weeks! I wish there were community theatres in NYC that put up shows that auditioned, rehearsed, and performed during the summer...
But alas, I'll have to wait till school to do another show.

I'm a Junior at the Las Vegas Academy of Performing Arts. I'm taking the summer to kind of relax and take a step back to focus on dance and vocal classes rather than productions as my school has so much going on at once during the year.

I was sha-whating at the lack of activity here recently as well. I started on the site in eighth grade and this board was pretty much the coolest thing ever. Things have gradually slowed down. WHAT'S GOING ON!?!?! haha.
No one wants to see a musical called Thoroughly Modern Mildred.

Hey all! I'm in my 2nd year of community college and working to transfer to the state university to study musical theatre. I've already done one show this summer, and am just waiting for another opportunity to pop up. Really I'm just excited for school to start again so that I can get back to work! :]

Hi everyone! Summer's been great so far...I just finished a run as Libby Tucker in I Ought to Be in Pictures, I took a trip to NYC to see a bunch of shows, and I just got roped into running lights for Moon Over Buffalo (which should be interesting because I've never worked a lighting board).

re: The Student Board has no life anymore! What is everyone up to?!

Hi guys! I'm Liz. I'll be a Freshman at Pace University for BFA Acting in the fall. I'm redic excited for college. I've been dying to go since I was a sophomore in high school haha. This summer I'm not really doing much. Right now I'm not in any shows but I'm auditioning in the city alot. I have a callback for a show tomorrow. I'm also trying to find an actual job since I have to pay for college. I've applied to 17 places and got called by 0. Thank you Mr. Recession.

re: The Student Board has no life anymore! What is everyone up to?!

Hey! I will be a junior in high school this year, and am really starting to think about where I would like to go after high school. Right now I am involved in show choir as the junior dance captain. Also I am playing 3 different small parts in a local production of South Pacific. Chorus (sailor) is the biggest part, then Henri, then Marcel. We just finished out first week of shows and have had great crowds. Next week should be phenomenal.

So many LVAers on this board! :- ) I sort of miss it occasionally... haha.

I'm a rising junior at Vassar, double major in history and English with a (pointless) minor in Italian. I'm probably going to drop the history major down to a minor, though. This summer I'm interning at a small historic house in Catskill, NY and starting work at Old Navy next Friday (a real job! That pays real money!). In my copious spare time I take ballet class (when I can... the studio is only open Monday-Thursday, lame) and go to the gym and read A LOT.

At school, I'm mostly busy with dance... I'm in the Vassar dance company and a student-run dance group in addition to 2-3 dance classes, so that takes up a lot of my time. I did Godspell last semester (Joanne - "Bless the Lord" soloist - such a fun show but really, really weird) and next semester our department is doing Rent, which I am SO EXCITED to audition for (and if I don't get into that, the student group is doing The Full Monty). Much excitement on the horizon.

I'm a senior at Southern Illinois University-Edwardsville and am currently scrambling to find a place to live since my roommate just told me she would not be renewing our lease at the end of the month. All i'm up to right now is trying to work a lot and getting ready for the mess that is going to be next year. Lots to do.

I graduated last year from college...so I suppose I am "too old" for this board, but I love it so I post here anywhere :) I am working in a 50/60's show at Dollywood until October. Despite the preconceived notions about theme park shows, it's actually kind of fun...though I am excited to be in a show with lines again.
Drama- I am more than jealous of your Will Swenson kiss.

re: The Student Board has no life anymore! What is everyone up to?!

J'aime, you're definitely not too old to be on the student board re: The Student Board has no life anymore! What is everyone up to?! And that's awesome that you're working at Dollywood! I think every performer should have a theme park experience under their belt. The material you're performing may not have a lot of substance, but it definitely provides you with a lot of unique experiences. (Like dancing in the sweltering heat haha)

Drama, I too am extremely jealous.

re: The Student Board has no life anymore! What is everyone up to?!

hey! I'm a senior history and theatre double major at Gettysburg College. I'm living in NYC this summer while I'm interning at Ellis Island.
I've been seeing tons of shows this summer, so it's awesome living here. I just won the lotto for In The Heights last night, so amazing. :)

re: The Student Board has no life anymore! What is everyone up to?!

I'm very useless on this thread, but I guess I can consider myself a student, so that makes me able to post here! haha. I'm a Creative Writing major with a focus in theatre and a Music Composition minor. If you haven't guessed, I'm going to school to write musicals. I'm way excited. haha. So if you guys want to be cast in musicals that are cramazing, then you better talk to me! haha. JK, but seriously, I could be casting all of you guy someday (since all of us are going to make it to broadway). re: The Student Board has no life anymore! What is everyone up to?!
Going to NYC for the 1st (real) time! Seeing Next to Normal, Wicked, and Jersey Boys. If anyone has a suggestion for rush Wednesday matinee (something not mainstream) please PM me! :D
