Theatre Student of the Month: August 2022

Theatre Student of the Month: August 2022

Surprise! We have two amazing Theatre Students of the Month for August! Introducing our second Theatre Student of the Month for August, Victoria Kanes from Chipola College! Victoria was nominated by her advisor, Raines Carr. 

Here is what Raines shared with us about Victoria: "Victoria began work at Chipola as a Dual-Enrolled senior in high school and immersed herself into all the theatrical work being done a the college. She performed in 3 shows her first year and worked tech for several others. She assisted in designing costumes for our children's show of Charlotte's Web which had over 2500 children attend. Now in her first full year at Chipola, she has been cast in the Fall Musical and was awarded a theatre performance scholarship and costume shop assistant scholarship for the Fall of 2022.

Victoria's leadership skills were evident the moment she walked onto campus. She is a veteran theatre maker and fits right into our classes and productions here at Chipola. She always offers help and suggestions to solve the myriad of problems that arise in mounting a theatrical production. She takes on daunting tasks by herself and is more than willing to lend a hand to anyone in need of help. Her work in class has grown exponentially in the past year and she has opened herself up to learning in growing in this art form. She wants to make a career in the theatre and there is nothing stopping her from achieving that goal. She is self-motivated and understands the sacrifices this art demands. I highly recommend her for the FSCAA Theatre Student of the Month." 

Congratulations to our August Theatre Student of the Month and thank you to Mr. Carr for nominating her!
