Interpretive 

The most important thing I gained from working at Chino Community Theater was the connections and relationships I made while working here. I gained connections to other Inland Empire theaters if I ever want to work at a similar theater in college in Irvine. Also the relationships I made there made me a more confident as an actor and as a person. They helped me one on one to perfect my acting skills and taught brand new things to me. They eased the pressure off of auditioning for a community theater play and given me the skills and resources to get through other auditions in the future. I am truly grateful to them. 

Applied 

Even if I didn't have research or books to help me with my essential question, I would still have come to the same conclusion regardless because of my mentorship at Chino Community Theater. Whenever I came across a potential answer in a book, research, or through personal experience, I never considered it a GOOD answer unless I saw it in action at a professional community theater. Chino Community Theater is considered one of the best community theaters in the nation. They're so experienced and skilled at what they do that I needed them to prove the answers I would find to be correct or why it wasn't correct. They were my senior project testers. CCT also opened up possibilities I never got to explore before- like Stage Managing and Sound Tech. I got such well rounded training there that I can do almost anything in the theater business up to this point.
