These creative women brave the insecurities of the theatrical world to express themselves within their chosen technique. The arts are hard work. It takes discipline to produce and perform artistry that is technically acceptable and exciting to participate in. It is a particular mind-set that causes women to enter the arts and try to make a living within dance, music, art and any of the hundreds of various disciplines available. Artistic women are to be commended for their bravery and strength. It takes both to sustain them through the years of development and hard work to succeed.
