Sarah Ramey '03
Out Loud
Sarah Ramey, a religion major and English minor-in the spirit of a true liberal arts education - spends most of her extracurricular time working in theater and music. Over her four years she has dabbled here and there in the theater department acting in the direction projects, singing from the rafters of Wish Theater, and writing her own short play. Most notably, she was pleasantly surprised with the opportunity to direct Masque and Gown's spring musical, Into the Woods. Her experience with Into the Woods lead her to write Out Loud, a one act muscial. For Ramey, Out Loud is a performance she hopes will inspire students to speak up and voice their opinions.
