BIO


Hi! My name is Victoria Huguet and I am a second year student at Florida State majoring in Economics and planning to dual major in Theatre. I'm from a small town in South Florida called Weston and I've enjoyed doing research since my senior of high school when I took AICE Global Perspectives, a course offered by the Cambridge program at my high school.

Abstract


The Tallahassee Theatre Index
Presentation Abstract: This project is a culmination of theatre programs and companies in both the direct and greater Tallahassee area. It is created in the form of a digital library and contains both a theatre index and a calendar. The theatre index lists all of the companies in the form of profiles, each containing the same formatting. The information included in this format is the company's social media sites and a summary of what the company does. The calendar is an extension of the company's information, for it lists any upcoming events for the companies included in the index. This is all found on a Wix website and was created for simple and direct access to the arts in Tallahassee. Through this index, we are hoping to incorporate more theatre in the area and allow for more direct communication between companies, thus enhancing positive theatre morale in the city. If theatre companies can be in contact with one another, it is with the hope that more cohesive projects can be created and initiatives on which societal issues are focused can be developed. This will change the impact of theatre and showcase that there is more to the arts than one can simply perceive
