Student Profile: Tara Bouldrey

Tara Bouldrey wanted the chance to explore a theatre major at a place where she felt like she fit. She found that opportunity at Alma College.

The program here gives you the opportunity to try absolutely every aspect of theatre.

“The program here gives you the opportunity to try absolutely every aspect of theatre,” the Ohio junior says. “The fact that it’s not a gigantic program means that I can get the stage experience that I need to better myself.”

Bouldrey plans to make a career in acting and would love to work for a traveling Shakespeare company.

“Alma was the only place that made me feel welcome, even when I was just touring the campus,” she says. “And to be completely honest, it all just came down to where I felt the most comfortable and wanted.”

 

The Alma College Percussion Ensemble performed at the prestigious Centrum Jazz Festival, an international festival in Port Townsend, Wash., in July 2007. Alma was the only college group invited to perform. "It's a huge honor," says faculty director Dave Zerbe. "You can't apply to perform there; they seek you out."

Michigan’s fall and winter weather might annoy some, but it brought Natividad Salgado to Alma from Miami. That, and the chance to study theatre.

“In the Theatre Program at Alma I have the opportunity to try all different aspects of theatre,” the junior says. “It’s very flexible — if you want to act and take a lighting design class, you are able to.”
