Don’t Look Back

Since the beginning of the pandemic, artists on all scales have been struggling to maintain that creativity which makes them shine most. As of October 2021, the Hope College Theatre Department has regained their audience, making all subsets of the theatre arts become more and more actualized with every production. Don't Look Back follows the company of Sarah Ruhl's Eurydice, as they journey "to the underworld and back," for their grand opening night.

Moments In The Making

In my Documentary course, we were tasked with creating an observational documentary. My peers and I went on a hike and filmed the process. Then, we all had used the dame footage to come up with totally different stories. My documentary is about getting creative when plans change and making the most out of the situation.
