Hi jorgeplath,

Everyone has to make a living. Having a career would be a common problem for musical theatre types. Unless it’s a traveling gig, rehearsals would most likely be in the evenings and weekends.

I just told my DS (gently) that as we grow up, sacrifices sometimes have to be made. He was unable to practice as much in his sport this year, and now he may not be on the podium. Next year he will physically be unable to practice as he will be in a program far away from where he can… Same thing with hobbies, even hobbies that *some* people have made a career at.

But there is often a creative way around it.

Education you would have more time off for the summer. Dentistry you might have to work weekends. Marketing I would imagine is nine to five.

If nothing fits your schedule, can YOU get a group together and get a venue?

Best,

Inky
