Since coming to FMU as a transfer student, I have been auditioning for all of the theatrical performances available to me. Even when not cast in a role, I have made an effort to be involved in the other aspects of the performance.

The Q & A with the theatrical agent could give me insight on how to get an agent and make me more accessible to finding jobs once I am out in the field.

Another of the events that you have mentioned that I am excited about, is to see the professional theatre training company, and to observe its inner workings.
I know that there are only a few available positions available for this educational experience and therefore not everyone interested will be able to share in this opportunity. I hope that this short essay conveys my desire to become a better actress and that I understand the personal benefits I would receive from the activities you have
