Question 1-5:
To: Sam Berry From: Bessie Wagner [email protected]
Date: July 4
Subject: Openings
Dear Mr. Berry,
My name is Bessie Wagner and I am currently a student in the theater department at Lins University. I have almost finished my degree, and I am starting to look into possible career opportunities for my future. A professor of mine recommended that I contact you at the Prince Theater to ask about possible positions at your company.
At Lins University, I specialized in the production elements of theater. Through both academic and practical experiences, I learned the useful skills necessary for stage management. As of September, I will be available to work either part-time or full-time and apply myself fully to whatever task is assigned to me.
I would really appreciate it if you let me know if there are any available positions starting this fall.
Bessie Wagner
