I studied theater arts and was involved in college theater but overseas. I was more of a props buyer/manager rather than a creator. I came to the US two years ago and so far, the only theater experience I had was being a runner for a community theater production A YEAR AGO. I really don't have a lot of hard skills and I have no clue what/how/where to develop skills and build my portfolio.

I live in a big Florida city but nothing really happens here. It's like one big suburb, full of houses and trees. Not a lot of theater opportunities. I've been working in manufacturing for a year now (in 2nd shift) and its completely unrelated to what I want to do. Learned how to be quite fast with my hands though lmao. Is it actually possible though? I don't want to go back to school because I feel like its just unnecessary debt but I feel really stuck. All I know is I don't see myself doing anything else but working in props, and by extension, theater.

Edit: I forgot to write that I have no portfolio, even from my college days. Which makes everything harder than it already is.
