“In the advanced directing program you actually get the opportunity to mount your own show. It's a fantastic experience because you get to audition your very own actors. You get to look at people and say, “No, I don’t want you but I do want you." And then you get to struggle for several weeks while you try to stage everything; you put them in their place, you let them figure out things naturally, you tell them what you want to convey, and then hopefully after the end of that - after you’ve put your set together and your costumes and you’ve figured out what you want to do with makeup and you’ve told your actors everything you want them to do on stage that they haven’t discovered themselves - then hopefully you have a show." - Peter Oldack, PVCC Theater Student
