11 Foods That Fuel The Theatre Major

Or rather, what keeps us alive.

11 Foods That Fuel The Theatre Major
Dreamatico.com

If you have friends who are involved with the Theatre and Dance department at Ohio Wesleyan University, you know they have long hours, are often working several shows at the same time, and barely get any sleep.

We try to eat, but more often than not our classmates end up snacking rather than having an actual meal, or just live off coffee and pure will.

So here's a list of ingestible items that fuel the Theatre Majors at OWU.

1. Coffee.

I don't feel like I need to explain this one.

2. Monster.

I guarantee at least one person in the Department is drinking one at this very moment.

3. Bagels from the Hamwill Bakery at 4:25pm.

Because we might not get to eat till a lot later in the day and damn, those bagels are nice.


4. Anything Publicity Crew brings in.

You know, for receptions and strike?

5. Pizza at the lunch hour.

Between production meetings and major/minor meetings, a lot of our lunch hours are in the Theatre, so the Hamwil lines are unacceptable.

6. Alternatively, sushi at the lunch hour (pizza was the day before).

Some savages even go in with a fork.

7. J Gumbo's on Fridays.

You know, because Hamwil is closed.

8. Props food during shows.

It was mashed potatoes during An Enemy of the People, week-old cake during Red Hot and Cole, amongst others.

9. Hot Pockets (looking at you, Ares).

He makes them during morning classes. I laugh every time.

10. Tea.

For our voices, you know?

11. The tears you shed over the script/light plot/ground plan/props list/cast list.

Most are tears of frustration.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
