All the world may be a stage, but what is it like to work at a non-profit theater?

Meet the interns at A Noise Within.

Tuesday.

Despite the lack of creative title, today was quite a creative day. We're moving forward on the Measure for Measure study guide, getting it all ready for the show which starts rehearsing in the next few weeks. While I work in the education department, I get to see all facets of this theater company in action. I've done my background research on Measure... studying the setting, characters, words, etc. and then I get to see people walk through the door auditioning for specific parts. I am seeing the words on the page literally come to life. While the show isn't cast quite yet, I still get a general idea of the director's vision -- how he perhaps sees specific characters. Is Isabella innocent and young? Or is she older and stronger, though pure in her features? I do not doubt that the show will be beautiful, and I hope that I get to see it when I'm home from school on break.

The amazing thing is that we just had so many events culminate last week (SWS and Groundbreaking, to name a few) and yet we are still pushing forward with the same sense of passion and determination. It's such a lovely community to be a part of.
