My first experience at Yale was with nenowned choreographer, Ralph Lemon, so I am already on my way. And during these adventures, I know that I am knowledgeable about theatre with a wide range of experiences to draw from. CMSU allowed me that, by supporting a theatre department that concentrates on its undergraduates, with faculty deeply committed to teaching and mentoring their students. In a world full of distinguished theatre graduate programs, an undergraduate program dedicated to creating superior theatre artists is a rarity. So one takes what they have and tries to make the mose of it.
People have problems everywhere, with everything.
The trick is to move a level above, to see your dream at one end winking at you. As I see it, there really is no other choice. Before I graduated from CMSU in 1997, I spoke to the McNair students about my search for a master's program in Museum Science. As I told those students, I somehow chose one of those rare areas of study for which only a few great programs exist. Much to my surprise, I decided to attend the program at Texas Tech University.
