#Person1#: So, Claire, you're into drama.
#Person2#: Yes, I have a master's degree in drama and theater. At the moment, I'm hoping to get on to a PhD program.
#Person1#: What excites you about drama?
#Person2#: Well, I find it's a communicative way to study people and you learn how to read people in drama. So usually I can understand what people are saying even though they might be lying.
#Person1#: That would be useful?
#Person2#: Yeah, it's very useful for me as well. I'm an English lecture, so use a lot of drama in my classes, such as role plays. And I asked my students to create mini dramas. They really respond well. At the moment, I'm hoping to get on to a PhD course. I'd like to concentrate on Asian drama and try to bring Asian theater to the world's attention. I don't know how successful I would be, but here's hoping.
#Person1#: Oh, I'm sure you'll be successful.
Claire wants to get on to a PhD program in drama because she thinks that it is a communicative way to study people and wants to bring Asian theater to the world's attention.
