Paige Crocker, freshman in theatre education, has known her destiny since seventh grade.
I auditioned for my first show and I was hooked, she said. I just love the raw emotion I feel while acting. I felt like I could both be more myself and be another person, and I could make the audience believe and wonder and make them dream.
Crocker says she considers herself seasoned, but she said her role in Going to See the Elephant has been a fresh experience and a new challenge.
