So last week I had the PRIVILEGE to attend Utah's annual Theatre Conference. The people i met and the things I learned were absolutely amazing. The key note speaker was Anne Bogart. If you don't know her you probably should. She is now my inspiration when it comes to acting. I also had a chance to sing FOR Benj Pasek and Justin Paul. I sang "I Once Knew" from the song cycle they wrote, Edges. Anne gave all the kids there 7 points of advice.
1. Follow the Pulse
2. Make a Mark
3. Create the World You Want To Live In
4.Finish the Sentence
5. Be unreasonable
6.Bring Attention Where Attention Is Needed
7. Cultivate Attitude
My new favorite quote for theatre is "I do theatre cause I find life unacceptable":)
4. was "Finish the Sentence."
