The realm of the arts have has always fascinated me.

There’s something special about performance. Something unique about the way you can present yourself as someone else in front of an audience. Ever since I was around six years old, I’ve always had a unique sort of fascination with the stage. The grace of the actors, the wonder of the set. All that pizazz. 

Live performance is at a weird stage right now, but luckily there are still youth invested in it, which is what keeps everything going at this point.

Take this article, for instance. Like any aspiring actor, I was, of course, jealous, and when I thought over the performers’ dedication and talent, I was even more jealous. But it’s definitely cool to see more opportunities like this appearing for teenagers.

That being said, I think it’s important to note that performing (and performance) should try to establish a better rapport among young people. As much as I like the stage, I think it’s a bit of a problem if future generations aren’t interested. Everyone my age might want to be an actor, but when they think of acting, they’re thinking of movie acting, not live theatre. Live theatre has been a stronghold for a while, but if it can’t catch up to on-screen acting, it’s falling behind.- strong, clear conclusion in line with the rest of your article.
