A series on the role of theatre in vocation, with a focus on how it supports community-building, the uncommon good, and vocational exploration and discernment for all our students.
Lights up on theatre professor’s office. STUDENT sits across from PROFESSOR, tears running down their cheeks. PROFESSOR is used to this, has multiple tissue boxes around.
STUDENT
All I’ve ever wanted to do is theatre. But my parents said they’ll disown me if I major in it.
PROFESSOR
Why are they against it?
STUDENT
They say I won’t get a job, I’ll be poor. They think it’s not a real career, it’s just a hobby. They don’t take it seriously.
PROFESSOR offers tissue box as scene fades to black.
