>what kind of specific things are you going to be studying?
>do you pick a concentration to focus on?

I'm definitely going to dive as far into directing as possible, and continue studies of acting, dramatic writing, and text analysis, things of that nature.

I do believe I'll be picking a concentration, but I'm not sure what yet.

Also, I'll have to write a thesis during my 2nd year, about a to-be-determined subject.

>i did my MFA in dramatic writing, and i loved it.

>start getting involved with theaters right away.
>the business is all who you know.
>well, not all. but lots.

No, it's pretty much all who you know, lol. I do well in Jacksonville, Florida mostly because I'm friends with the right people, I'd wager.

I've met a few NYC people and I'm tight with Emanuel Azenberg, so if I need a job in NYC or another big city, I'm sure I could get one. I'll probably more realistically go into teaching while directing or acting in shows in regional or community theaters. I'm not 1000% sure that the NYC struggle is the lifestyle for me, or if it is, I'd like to have a good nest egg to fall back on.

>congrats, man

Thanks. Where did you graduate from?
