My name is Jessica Abad, but most people call me Jessie, and I play Philemon in Pericles. It is such an honor to be here doing this program. Being around a group of people my age with a passion for theater is very refreshing, and working with all the professionals has been so much fun. Everyone has taught me something in these last two weeks, and they’re all so supportive. This is the first time I’ve ever done a Shakespeare play, and though I was scared and nervous before rehearsals started, I’m now much more confident in myself and I’ve overcome a lot of challenges with a lot of help from those around me. I love working with everyone, and I hope I get to work with them again some day, whenever our paths cross.
I graduated from Monte Vista High School this last June, and after this program, I plan to go on to college to major in theater. My career goal is to become a stage manager, but I do plan on performing on stage again in the future. I’ll be applying all these lessons I have learned, and I’ll never forget this experience.
