Former Students

 

Thank you, Fullerton College Theatre Arts alums, for the kind of program you helped us create and sustain....

"The artist is nothing without the gift, but the gift is nothing without the work." - Emile Zola

Discovering and cultivating one's gifts can be a wonderful adventure in life, but without a commitment to hard work we never get to evidence the full dimensions of that adventure. Gary Krinke has frequently reminded us that we need to cultivate in the truly gifted a talent for working.

We hope that during your time with us as a student we helped to cultivate in you the capacity for working hard. And, we also trust that we created an environment in which mutual respect and friendships were cultivated. Lastly we hope you were proud of the work you accomplished at FC.

Many of our alums from all over the world remain in close contact with us, some host guest workshops, many judge at the theatre festival, and some participate in our Playwrights and Directors festivals. All are welcome. The success and experiences of our alumni are two of our most treasured resources and give our current students permission to dream.
