Every college campus that has a theatre department there's sure to be a clan of theatre majors. While most people probably see them all as the same type of person...one may be surprised at the vast variety of thespians
1. The Musical Theatre major
This is probably the person you're think of when you thing "theatre major". They're probably loud, wearing character shoes often and loves to be center of attention. But I promise, this is only a small percentage of theatre majors
2. The Actor
Actors are usually a bit more toned down compared to the typical musical theatre major. They're still a bit dramatic. They can usually be found participating in some sort of strange theatre game.
3. The Scenic Designer with a vision
These are the more artsy kids involved with theatre. They still know every word to Wicked but they can probably be seen covered head to toe in paint rather than character shoes. They've gone a little crazy due the fact that they're literally being working on a hand drafting project until 3am, BUT they have a killer idea for the set of the upcoming show!
4. The Hamilton Groupies
I have little words. You know who you are.
5. the Stage Managing major
They look like this always. They know everything about the theatre and make everyone's lives easier but are rarely given the recognition for it. These guys have seen every aspect of a show and somehow still love it.
6. The Lighting Majors
These guys have there gobos, gels and gaff tape ready to do. They have spent long hours using CueLab making lighting and focus plots. For some reason they always have a wrench in their back pocket....
7. The Freshmen
These freshies are new to the whole college thing and most of the time are use to being the big star at their high school (especially if they came from a small town). These guys are not only trying to adjust to college life but trying to meet everyone and audition for shows which are often the first week of classes! They might be going a little nuts but they're hopeful and ready to make a place for themselves.
