Does anyone have any post-college job experiences after receiving a Drama/Theatre bachelor's degree?"
Btw, where did you receive your BA and what do you want to do? What was your reason attending college and studying Drama/Theatre...to be an actor or?"
I went to Queens College and I want to find a theatre-related job (ex: development, research for Broadway League, assistant to producer or press agent, desk job, etc.).
I attended QC to study Drama/Theatre because I wanted to become a theatre critic/journalist. My minor was Journalism at first, but COVID ended it, so I switched to English.
Well, as you probably know, theatre reviews in newspapers, magazines etc. are becoming increasingly rare, and the job of full-time "theatre critic" is basically obsolete at this point. However, if you really want to write about theatre, academia may be for you...I am currently getting a Ph.D. in theatre if you want to direct message me and chat about that sort of thing.
As far as more administrative theatre type positions go, I would recommend going to the website of every theatre organization you like/admire/would be willing to work at and emailing the appropriate person your resume. Non-profit theatre companies are always looking for people to help out. You'd probably start with something rather thankless, but could work your way up and explore possibilities from within.
You should have good knowledge and excellent writing skills if you did well in your undergraduate program. Have you considered using your knowledge and experience to help such students as you recently? I ask because I had a similar problem with my job search not so long ago. And found a great way out. I became a writer for https://assignmentbro.com/ca/assignment-help-ottawa and now I write various tasks in English for students in Ottawa. This job has many advantages for me. I consider it a good option for my first job. Of course, in time, I will look for something else. You can do the same. If you specialize in theater/drama, you can find similar work for yourself. I know there are always students for whom there is a need for assignment help ottawa and my work. There are also students whom you can help. Consider this option.
