Why I Want To Be A Thespian

Decent Essays
Almost my entire life I have wanted to have something in common with my dad. He always watched football with my sister and they had little inside jokes, but we never really had anything in common, until I joined Lake Howell Theater Company. My dad was always in theater when he was my age, so whenever I’m in a play we always have something to talk about. One of the main reasons I want to become a thespian is so that my dad and I can have that in common.
A thespian is someone who is in a part of a troupe that acts together and works hard to be good performers. Being a thespian would be a huge privilege because I have always dreamt of being a part of something, and if I was accepted into this troupe it would mean that I am a part of something.

While my relationship with my father has been changing and evolving for my entire life, I realize now that one day it will come to an end, but that does not mean that our relationship was…

    What does theatre mean to me? As I review the questions provided for me to include in my goal statement, I feel lucky to express how theatre is unique to me and how I structure my everyday life around the dramatic arts.
