Summer Jobs!

After searching for jobs at Midwest Theatre Auditions, I finally found the perfect job for me in my home town! Over this spring break I had a job interview at the Spencer Community Theatre for the position of the Children's Theatre Director and Education Intern. With this job I get to direct two children's theatre shows and stage manage the third. I also get to teach various theatre classes to children. This will be wonderful! I get the experience and everything to build a resume', but don't have to pay the extra money for housing, food, and laundry!

The Spencer Community Theatre is offering three internships the Tech Director's Assistant, The Musical Director, and the one I got. :) I was pumped to find out that my best friend, Elizabeth Taylor (not THE Elizabeth Taylor. This one's much more wonderful) will be working at SCT too! She got the Technical Internship, so she will be building sets and I will help the children act on them.

Another cool thing about this summer is that one of my housemates here at the performing arts theme house is going to live with me for the summer. One of my Simpson best friends, Heather Powers, will be starring in three shows at the Treasure Village Children's Theatre in Spirit Lake, Iowa (about 15-20 minutes from my house). It's a wonderful family-owned theatre and also doubles as a mini golf course. I've worked there for three summers in the past, but since last summer I've been having new theatrical adventures.
