Sophomore Isaac Linnett has been involved in theatre for most of his life, starting when he was in elementary school. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI started theatre because my mom started the [children\u2019s] theater when I was growing up,\u201d Linnett said. \u201cThat entire thing ignited my spark for theatre.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Linnett participated in dozens of shows growing up and continued that momentum in college. He jumped into Harding\u2019s theatre program with both feet, participating in every show he could, including ensemble in Spring Sing last year. Linnett said he enjoyed being in ensemble and wanted to audition for the role of host for fun, and he was cast as one of the hosts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a privilege, for sure,\u201d Linnett said. \u201cI wasn\u2019t expecting anything, and I know for some people it\u2019s their dream to be [host], because they\u2019ve grown up with Harding, but I kind of stumbled upon it with my girlfriend.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Linnett said the production will have some changes from last year\u2019s show, but it will be just as exciting. The biggest change was returning to the traditional four hosts from the six cast last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>\u201cI don\u2019t think we\u2019re necessarily, like, stepping back from how big it was last year\u2026 I mean Spring Sing is big,\u201d Linnett said. \u201cI don\u2019t think it\u2019ll ever not be big.\u201d <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n The production team and students have been working on this show for months, and Linnett said he was excited to share it with the audience and see their reactions. <\/strong>\u201cI\u2019m just ready to see all the smiles on people\u2019s faces in the audience,\u201d Linnett said. \u201cThat\u2019s what you get out of it. It\u2019s sharing the love that you got from theatre and giving it to other people in the audience.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sophomore Isaac Linnett has been involved in theatre for most of his life, starting when he was in elementary school. \u201cI started theatre because my mom started the [children\u2019s] theater…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15086,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[674],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20295","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-spring-sing-2024"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20295","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15086"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20295"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20295\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20310,"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20295\/revisions\/20310"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20295"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20295"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thelink.harding.edu\/the-bison\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20295"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
