“What every mainstage has taught me is about connection and the power of being able to do something in a large group of people when everyone is passionate about it.” — Summer Meade ’24
“What every mainstage has taught me is about connection and the power of being able to do something in a large group of people when everyone is passionate about it. There’s vulnerability in coming together and doing something that might scare you a little bit, but when you’re doing something that you really love and care about, there’s nothing more that you’d rather be doing.”
“I learned that I love performing. Being out onstage, getting those butterflies beforehand … it’s something that I really live for and yearn for. Making someone feel something or helping someone sway any sort of emotion — it’s one of the greatest gifts you can give to someone, you know? At least, for free. That’s what I really love about theatre. Going out there and seeing everyone’s smiles — or horrified faces whenever I do something crazy — I live for that stuff. You make a difference in their day, and for some people, you make a difference in their life.”
