Theater students take last bow on Lipscomb stage for senior showcase

Lipscomb students will have the chance to take at least one more bow when the theater department wraps up its production year with a senior showcase Saturday at 7 p.m. in Shamblin Theater. Showcases like this one originally started in New York City as a way for young artists who have completed their training to show off their skills. Casting directors, agents and other professionals in the industry were invited to preview the work of these up-and-coming actors and actresses. Lipscomb’s show is not necessarily Broadway-bound, though. “Our Showcase is a celebration of our last four years of training, but also a way for us to give back to those who have helped us along our artistic journey,” acting major Austin Hunt said. Hunt prepared a webpage that highlights the work of each senior. With one click, viewers can navigate from one artist to the next and read about their majors, explore their resumes and learn about the work they will be showcasing during the special event. “We’ve been working hard for four years to hone our skills and this is our performance to share it,” Hunt said. “We’ll be sharing work that is near and dear to our hearts that shows who we really are.” Students, faculty and members of the Nashville community are invited to come and share the free event with each of the artists.
