High School Theater: Adam Faw Sets the Stage
Almost everyone has at some point uttered the phrase "I don't know what I want to do when I grow up."
While such an attitude is often stigmatized as -indicative of sloth and -dispassion, it is in fact a key characteristic of the so-called "Renaissance Man": an -intelligent, creative individual with a myriad of talents and interests. In -general, the longer it takes someone to make up his or her mind about a career, the more unique and socially valuable that career will be.
"I still have no idea what I want to do when I grow up," says Adam Faw, the 31-year-old theater teacher at Pinecrest High School. Having taught at Pinecrest for the better part of the past decade, Faw has worked long and hard to increase public appreciation of the arts.
Faw became involved in theater "late in the game," he says, "at least compared with some people. I hung out with some of the theater kids through high school, even though I was a jock; they dragged me to my first audition the summer before college, which was for 'West Side Story,' and I fell in love."
