Ginny Holladay, Alumni Update

Ginny Holladay who graduated from the Belhaven University Theatre Department in 2013 is living and working in Seattle, Washington.  I asked her to write a litte update on what she’s doing right now:

Assistant Directing on MR PIM PASSES BY  has been way more fun than I deserve…mostly due to the fact that the director, Karen, called me up one day with the “crazy idea” of letting me play the maid Anne. Thanks to that completely nonsensical idea of hers, I have not only been able to observe a truly passionate and fun-loving director at work, but also work opposite some fantastically talented actors and crew. Working/interning at Taproot Theatre (Seattle, WA) has been a priceless experience for me, and I know I owe a lot to my experience at Belhaven University where I learned the following important lessons: -when to be silent and when to speak up -how to sleep and stay healthy in the midst of long, hard hours -to always be compassionate and encouraging to people you are working with…that’s all we want for ourselves after all.

I love and miss you all so very much. -Ginny
