My Resume?

Question

I am writing my first resume and i have a few questions.

1. How do i list the millions of church and school plays/productions i have been in? How recent do they need to be? The problem is that most of them weren't based on famous plays.

2. How do i list all of my voice training with chorus/opera groups, voice lessons, etc?

3. I will be taking drama in high school, can i list it as soon as it starts?

btw, its just mainly these questions because i have the everything other than experience and training down

btw, this would be something to send in, not for theater

Answer 1

i reccomend u do something like this.....i don;t think it matters to be honest on how recent, or famous they maybe. If you KNOW you are taking the drama class put it down.....you keep the same resume for an agent or audition...wheater it's theater or not...

Answer 4

1. Just mention from the most recent and most important to the least...but not more than 5-6 in all. For the rest just give the number.

2. Same thing, but make sure u put in some more details.

3. yes definitely. you gotta. it sure adds up to your credentials.

Answer 5

most people dont look for theatre stuff

but

you would list the organization and year

for example

st. johns theatre program 1999-present

Answer 6

You do not list such activities unless they have a direct relation to the job you are applying for. Most employers are looking for related experience not every experience. Limit your experiences to things that would make you good at the job you want. Voice training would not impress unless you were applying for singing radio jingles or something.
