Taking the first steps into your career is daunting, and if you are reading this, it means you are hoping to build a career in the arts. Take it from me, that is not an easy path, but, as I sit here writing this, let me tell you it’s possible, just extremely difficult.
Studies show that students who experience live theatre are better at reading, vocabulary and have increased tolerance, more so than if they had just read or watched a book or movie version of the same story. Not only is live theatre a great tool for learning academic skills, it also helps with social skills and general acceptance of their peers.
So you want to know how it all started? How does one make a professional theatre company in Mississauga?
“This was a great experience and I think everyone should join in the readings.”
