13 Things Only Baldwin Wallace Theater Majors Understand
Baldwin Wallace University

Baldwin Wallace is home to many different students studying many different majors, but one of the most stressful (yet rewarding) is our theater program. With an amazing staff, wonderful shows, and opportunity just around the corner, our department is constantly full of things only BW theater majors understand.

1. Running out of printing money because you needed resumés and headshots.


I think I spend more money printing than I make acting.

2. Having to take dance classes when there's a clear reason you're not a dance minor.

I apologize in advance to the actual dancers who have to work with me.

3. Jack Winget.


Booga booga.

4. The feeling when Groundlings opened.

Thank you for this gift, this blessing.

5. Annoying nursing students while you're in the acting studio.


That's what happens when you put our acting studio in MACS.

6. Being totally comfortable with seeing your classmates naked on stage.


It gradually goes from "He has to get naked?!" to "Who's getting naked this season?"

7. Not inviting your parents to a show because you're naked on stage.

No, Mom, please don't invite Grandma.

8. Reminding everyone that TAP is the April Reign co-ed champions 2 years running.

Take that, athletics.

9. Trying to free your neck.

Thanks for the advice, Adam.

10. Late night run-ins with John Patrick's ghost.

Was that a ghost or a draft we just felt? The world may never know.

11. Sand.

"Big Love" was last semester. Why does the Allman still feel like this?

12. Weekend rehearsals when Lang is closed.

Well, guess I'm not eating at all today.

13. Knowing that you belong to one of the most tight-knit departments on campus.

Those who stress together stick together.

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
