The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.
You and the business school or taking a science getting a science degree, you probably become very familiar with this and the other math building. Then right behind me here, this's Villard, it's Thie theater building. I loved coming here every every other day for my acting class this term, because it's just like such a beautiful kind of European looking, building and then attached to it is the main stage, so we're gonna walk through here. So I came into this because it's pretty much the only room in your building right now. Um, so this is just like a little backstage room where think of it, get ready here before shows and then, like, that's a stage door. I'm like, really nervous to walk out there because you just never know in the theater building what's going on and for context and some trying. Said Erin Byrne, and like that's fighting in the theatre building. So I put that in there to remind me of Hamilton and then that's it, thank God. So I wish I could show you the main stage. You can see a little bit of the backstage in there. I think it's called Unfortunately, no, No stage to work for us today. Um, here's the sign Village hall, and then behind me, there's a main road. I think this is Franklin. So now we're on the other side of the building, all right, So I just wanted to talk a little bit about Villard and Thie theater department at U of O in general. So if you're thinking of coming here for acting or theater of any sort, I would just. You know that like there's a big This is on on acting here. That was a little bit disappointing for me because I came from a high school that had a large emphasis on musical theater, which is just not the case here. We do have a great music school, and there's an entire building dedicated to that. If that's what you're into, I have a friend who's on a scholarship here for playing the saxophone. It's just the the logistics of coordinating with both of the departments sorry, that's super loud with logistics and coordinating with those departments is just difficult. So the theater department is kind of one entity, while the music department is its own as well. So it's giving me a much better appreciation for acting and for just like stage presidents, because I'm so used to, uh, music. So it's been really interesting experience for me. So if you're thinking of doing acting, this is a great school for its friends in the program. If you are on the musical theater side of things, this honestly public just isn't isn't the place for you. I love the acting teachers here, Love there's like three stages, is one with one of them being the main stage, and they're all super beautiful. There's a lot of great resource is so I have enjoyed it so far.
