Prior to working at The Hanover Theatre I was just a mere college student, studying communications at Woo State. I've always had a passion for theatre. From my first years of school recitals where my mom anxiously video taped, to my first role as Oliver in the 3rd grade, to my high school musical days where I was Marty in Grease, Annie in Annie, and Dorothy in The Wiz (yes, seriously).
Though I loved my time on stage, most high school musical stars know they have to make it in the world of the struggling artist to continue on stage, and I was not ready to live that way. So, I moved onward and upward and ended up majoring in communications hoping one day I could get paid to do one of my other favorite hobbies, graphic design. I continued to love theatre, and instead of being on stage, I enjoyed watching from my seat.
That was, until, the advertising coordinator position appeared in my inbox senior year of college. My advisor at Woo State forwarded me an job opening at The Hanover Theatre and said I should give it a shot. I applied, with no actual realization that I could actually get the position - I hadn't even graduated yet!
Long story short: I got the job, graduated from Worcester State University, and am currently working on my masters degree at Clark University. I am lucky enough to say (in this economy) I have a job doing something I actually have a passion for. And lucky for you, I want to share some of it with you!
Prior to working at the theatre I had NO IDEA what actually went on behind the scenes. It never occurred to me that someone has to create and print the programs, somebody else prints and mails out all the season subscriber tickets, while someone else keeps the basement from flooding! There is so much that actually goes on behind the curtain that the theatre enthusiasts around the world can take an intrest in, and that is the true goal behind my blog.
To enlighten, educate, entertain and excite you with theatre.
