Contrary to popular belief, Theatre is a very serious major.
BFA students in performance and production work all day, all night, and all weekend to perfect their artforms, and mount shows. It takes balls to be a theare major - particularly an acting major. The average salary of
unionized actors is $12 500 a year. You've really gotta love what you do to live in such
squalor.
