Master Class examines the art and discipline of theatre from the perspective of a believer. What is acting? Is it o.k. for Christians to become actors, and how does the private life of a Christian performer differ from that of their peers? Where does theatre reside within the Christian community? Lacing her thought with a captivating memoir, McCarthy addresses all of these queries through her delightful, affirming voice. Associate Professor of Theatre, Sanne McCarthy is resident director of Colorado Christian University stage productions with more than eighteen years teaching at the university level. As a professional actor and singer, she has performed on stages in the U.S. and Europe. Her infectious passion for faith and art is caught as well as taught. Sanne lives in Lakewood, Colorado, near two of her three grown children and all of her grandchildren.
