One Can Dream Alone, But Community Makes It A Reality

Donation protected
You know those things you bury so deep in your heart cause it’s just too painful to acknowledge? If you do, all you see is your fault and failure.
I should have…I didn’t…It’s too late… It does matter anyway…..
But for some reason it does matter!
Early last year as I was helping a friend apply to a theatre course, something deep inside me awoke and so did the tears!
All of a sudden I saw me, the little eight year old with her teddies and dolls all in a row, performing her heart out to a crowd of thousands.
Shauna Niequist author of Bread and Wine, writes:
"I have also long held the belief that one's tears are a guide, that when something makes you cry, it means something."

Theatre, has always been a deep passion and dedicated hobby, but that’s all it’s been, and that’s all it should stay right?
Logically, absolutely. However that desire to pursue something greater than myself won’t go away. As painful as it’s been to admit it’s there, I also feel a bubbling excitement about the possibilities that seems so far out of reach.
In January this year, I auditioned in Melbourne for Stella Adler Art of Acting L.A. I was then invited to a call back in L.A, which I attended in February. From that call back, I have now been invited to study the 2.5 years Professional Conservatory, at Art of Acting Los Angeles. I have been taking one day at a time throughout this whole process and even though I’ve gotten in, it still feels so far away. Tuition is $16K USD ($25K AUD) per year, which doesn't include living costs. I would have to apply for a student visa which means I can’t legally work in the USA.

I would like to invite you to be a fundamental part of this journey ahead of me.
I am learning the importance and healing of vulnerability. I've always prided myself on being independent and self-sufficient, but the truth is I need community. I need you. Thank you x
