Easy way to see what a program's alumni are doing

Google “resume” “BFA Acting” (or “BFA Musical Theater”) “Name of School.”

Immediately Google will bring up a ton of resumes from actors’ websites, which list the name of their school under “training.” You can look at their resumes to see what alumni of the program have been doing since they graduated!

Thanks, @actorparent1!! I just lost 2 hours of my life. HA HA!! So interesting. If anyone dives into this resume vortex - make sure you click “images” - I found that to be an easier way to see the resumes. Seems like BU puts on a ton of non-mainstream plays each season. I don’t know how I feel about that yet, but it excites my D. Some other schools stick to the mainstream.

@ginaf1102 Same here regarding losing at least an hour on that project! D walked by at one point and asked what I was doing. Reading about random people on the internet, of course!

Thanks @actorparent1! This is great!

That should excite every student! :slight_smile:

I’m so glad it was helpful! The idea just came to me last night, and I tried it out and immediately got addicted, LOL.

I do this, too, but we should all remember that just because kids at our kids school get cast, that doesn’t guarantee that our kid will get cast similarly or at all.
