Theatre Presentation



The theatre presentation had a lot of good information for people who are interested in theatre. However, I have no interest in acting or working in theatre so that the presentation didn’t really contain any information applicable to my situation besides being open to new ideas and situations. The theatre program at UCSB is highly ranked and will be presenting Macbeth by Shakespeare. At the end of the year the theatre program will end their set of plays with a newer play called equivocation. Equivocation is a play based on concepts derived from Macbeth and apparently draws many parallels to the play such that the theatre season will be bookended by similar themes. The presenter made certain to point out that anybody can try out for plays put on by the UCSB theatre organization, and some people who had no previous acting experience have go through the program and become the most promising young actors.
In all, I learned to be open to new ideas and new pathways that are available to me, but I am certain that acting is not for me due to my morals and values, it just wouldn’t be a good match.
