For many/most of us theater is just a hobby and not desired career choice. What do you want to/ do you do as a career.

I want to either be in the film business some how or teach at my current high school

[Holly]

I've considered acting professionally. I'm probably going to end up teaching theatre.

[Orestes Fasting]

The job I have right now is probably about as good as run-of-the-mill retail work can be expected to get.

As a career, though, I'll probably go into information technology. Getting paid to be a geek? Yes please.

[Joshua]

Theatre.

[Brock07]

Im going to school for Social Studies Education

[Joshua]

Oh and I've been wanting to tell you this for a long time. I just keep forgetting. It's spelled Kindergarten, not Kindergarden.

EDIT:
This is to theatrefan101 in reference to her signature.

I'm pursuing theatre. I'm getting a degree in the Applied Arts.

No, I don't think it's that easy. I'm just crazy like that. I mean, I honestly don't know anything to do with my life than perform.

[shakalakababy]

I've always kind of had a feeling i'd end up being a theater teacher which honestly i would absolutely love. Even if i do that though i still hope i can act in shows regularly

[mastachen]

I'm currently studying to become a doctor. I'm hoping to become a neurosurgeon.

[Anno_Domini]

At the moment, I work at Wendy's ..... *sigh*

However, I hope to go into the theatre professionally in either acting or writing/composing.

On that note, the script and lyrics for Barometer Rising are nearing completion. Muahahahahah!

[Tenalto]

Planning on going to med school and becoming a family practitioner. It was always kind of funny to see the looks on people's faces at my high school when they heard I wasn't majoring (or even minoring) in drama and/or music.

Musical Theatre, Theatre in general.
I know it's going to be really hard, but it's what I want to do for the rest of my life.

[sunshinekate]

Something involving theatre of some sort. I'm double majoring in theatre and communications, which I also love, and it's such a vast area, so, yeaah we'll see. I'm hoping both those degrees with kind of help eachother out and combine nicely.

I want to be in theatre.

I'm going to work my butt off to perform, but I'll do anything involved in theatre. I just want to stay in the business! I would be a director, costumer, critic, playwright, anything to stay!

[Orestes Fasting]

[Buff Daddy]

I'm too old to start a "career" in musical theatre (let alone not enough talent! ). I'm an accountant (so I get the pity vote!) working in the office of a private school.

[LaurelDP]

Acting is what I'm pursuing as my career.

I have other hobbies (mostly filmmaking/video production/broadcast and graphic art), but I'm not pursuing them.

[Elphaba22]

sunshinekate, my friend wants to do the same thing, but she doesn't know where she wants to go to school.

[MaryMag]

Even though I'm working like hell to do professional theater, it doesn't and won't pay the rent.

I earn most of my income through social work. I've been a teacher too. I may go back to substitute teaching this fall after I come back from New York.

When I decide to settle and have a few babies, I've already planned to become a dental hygienist.

I actually think good spelling is quite important. I once stopped dating a guy because he had poor spelling. Maybe I'm like Henry Higgins, and don't want to see people start down the slippery slope to sloppy language. I yearn for the days of Shakespeare. When people actually took the time to make language pretty, and people took the time to LISTEN.

[Cake_in_Song]

Well, um, theatre. I guess.




And for now, a cashier at Superstore.

[PappyCat]

I'd love to be a properties mistress. For film, tv, theatre. Anything.

I love performing, and it'll be something I always persue as a hobby. But I don't have the drive or disposition to try to do it professional. (I could handle the life of DOING it professionally, but I don't have to right disposition or attitude to deal with the years and years and years and years of rejection.) I love the entertainment environment, I'm happy to just be around it.

[kozafluitmusique]

I want to be a music teacher, but keep doing things with theatre as well. I don't really know ... my life has had so many turns in high school, I don't really know. I mean, returning to theatre (I forgot how much I missed it), moving to Holland (and able to be in choir), etc.

All that I know is I wish it "clicked" with me that I could act (in my opinion, but I'm not sure ... I mean, at a master class I did, the instructor let my partner for the assignment and I go over and over again, but also a fair amount of people did, too) a bazillion years ago - I'd be a lot farther now. But whatever.

I also am having fun making props for the middle school musical, so if I have more experience with that, I'd love (as frustrating it can be) to be a props manager on Broadway or just try ... it never hurts just to try although I know I'll never make it there.

I'll just see what life takes me through. If all fails, I'll just go back to school, study to be a musicologist, and be one.

My parents respect and accept the fact I want to be a music teacher, except sometimes when I get frustrated, my dad says, "you should reconsider" but I refuse. I just ... can't. I love music and theatre too much when I do it that I can't imagine sitting in front of the computer at a job for several hours in a day, and I'd probably get distracted. I know for teaching it's similar, but at least you're teaching some of it.
