Introductions...

My time at Cal State San Bernardino is coming to an end...finally. After 5 years of college I can safely say that I’m ready to move on and a little tired of the school scene. I’ll be graduating with a B.A. in Mass Communication, but when I first began college my goal was to be an actor. I took some theater arts classes and thoroughly enjoyed myself. After about the fourth theater arts class I changed my mind and wanted to pursue a job in journalism.

When telling people I was a theater arts major I always received some kind of strange reaction. It was as if people assumed that theater was a subject that was to be left behind in high school or chased after in Hollywood. The average student was just blind to how much work goes into theater and how much one can benefit from it.

After watching the Theater Arts Department execute the cult-classic, Rocky Horror Picture Show in Winter of 2005, I was stunned at the intricacy and the detail that could be found in an on-campus production.. It was then when I realized that Cal State’s Theater Department was the real deal and that people would be oblivious to this fact if they hadn’t seen any of the department’s productions…so…

This Fall quarter make it a priority to catch CSUSB’s Theater Department remake Shakespeare’s classic…Much Ado About Nothing.

This blog is intended to illuminate the production process and show the collaborative effort needed to make this play and to make it a successful one!
