After the workshop, members enjoyed a pizza party and discussed highlights from the past season, recalling the variety of experiences they had over the course of the year. "I liked being able to go to each meeting and do something new," said Danny. Victor agreed. "I liked the versatility of the activities, and the interactive nature of the program."
Others remembered the different theatre professionals they had the chance to meet. "My experience in CSC NextGen has been most beneficial in teaching me about the different aspects of theatre in contrast to only being a performer," said Loylia. Melissa agreed. "The most beneficial part of this experience was definitely being introduced to so many job opportunities in the theatre world."
But it wasn't just the professionals they learned from - members also cited each other as a big part of the success of this past year. "One of the best things about NextGen was having fun with new friends," said Carla. Shivani agreed. "I liked meeting other kids who like theatre." Dennis summed up the conversation nicely when he said, "The people we met inspired me to continue to involve myself in theatre."
