| Soozievt--it's so nice to hear from you and I just want to stress to those parents and kids starting out--this isn't only about my D. In retrospect, I know she didn't have as much training and experience as many kids. And for some, that doesn't matter; there are always those amazing ones who are fantastic from the first. The point is, she found someplace where she will be able to study theatre and dance and voice. And that's the thing that those of us who are parents need to be able to remind the kids--that there are many more places to study than the top 20 schools that are mostly mentioned.
And by the way, Washington, DC is a great theatre town these days. Besides American U., Catholic has an MT major, and I don't know about Maryland or Howard, but they do have theatre programs.
I just want to say good luck to all you seniors (and parents of) |
