Thesis: The Performing Arts departments, of Ball State University and across the United states, are having rapid funding reduction.

The reason why people should care is because the performing arts is an expressive form for ones whether watching it or being the performer. Learning about the Performing arts gives someone knowledge about themselves and about people in the world. I bet you are curious as to how that could be; how could watching a performance or being in a performance help one learn about themselves? Here is an example.

The dance department of Ball state put on a performance called works in motion. Works in Motion is for dancers of the department to show some dance pieces they are working on. The were all very wonderful, but one boy went up and danced and i knew it was about someone he had lost. I was brought to tears at how his performance brought me to a time in my life, and I did not feel so alone for those few moments.

The performing arts guides a person to understand the world and who/what they are to it.
