Brainstorming

My major is: Performance Theatre

When I leave Niagara, I want to: Work professionally in theatre as a performer for some time and continue to work as a theatre educator

To work in my chosen field, I will need to: Market my talent, and continue to fine tune my performance skills. I also need to keep updated as to what is going on in the theatre community so that I am aware of auditions and other casting calls.

Ways in which I’ve already demonstrated my professional skills include: My work in performances both at the university and in the community as both a performer and a stage manager. Also, my teaching of theatre to elementary children over this past summer which culminated in a production given by the children. Finally, my training both in my classes at Niagara and privately in voice, dance and acting.

Activities that I feel contribute to my professional life include: My participation in school and community productions, dance classes, private voice lessons, public speaking skills, leadership positions (Players board, Vincention Scholars)

I have written a resume.

Samples of my writing and/or art or other creative endeavors include: headshots, and also photos from shows that I have performed in. There are also video tapes of auditions monologues, dances, songs and performances, but they are on VHS

I am most proud of: All of my performance accomplishments, specifically my performance as Sarah Brown in Guys and Dolls and Ruth in No Shoulder. Also of my teaching accomplishments over the summer.

Colors that I feel represent me include: Navy blue and dark purple

Types of images that I feel represent me include: the comedy-tragedy masks, dance shoes, smiley faces (although those aren't as professional)
