Print transcriptIn the mornings, you're gonna have all your arts classes. After lunch, you will cram in a full day of academics. Drop below a C average and you're out. No exceptions. Now, let me make this very clear. We don't care about your headshot. Or your dress size. Or your dreams of being in OK! Magazine, on talk shows, on the red carpet. Here, you will learn a discipline. Here, you will come to understand what being a performing artist really means. Here, you will dedicate yourself to your craft. Now, if you're looking for shortcuts, if you want fame, if you want easy rewards, I highly recommend that you get up and leave now. There are many very talented young people who would be thrilled to take your place. So, have a great year.
