[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tell your child to defer college for a year, go to a major city (NYC) and wait on tables while auditioning for parts. If s/he says that's too scary/tough/not fun, then you will know that you should not shell out major $$$ so they can be a theater major in college because they don't have the chutzpah. And if your child truly does want to do theatre, I think real life experience will be better anyway.[/quote]

+1 - I think this is a good suggestion.  You could go to college after this, but if she can get through this, you'll know she'll be able to do what it would take to make it.[/quote]

This.  Or you could do what we did.  Our daughter is very talented and had the lead in three of the four musical theater productions at her high school.  Plus, she was in countless community performances.  She is still very involved in theater and musical theater in college.  But it's not her major.  She knows that it's important to have a back up.
