    Posted 06-16-2018 15:16
    HELP!! 

    I can't seem to locate the Thespian Festival Packing List that has been floating around for the last couple years. Can someone share that with me?

    THANKS!!

    Here you go!! 

    I posted this last year, and thought I'd repost with a few additions made by others!

    Now, a friend stated that they took less than this when they went into the Rainforest, but I assured them that trekking through the RF has nothing on a week at FESTIVAL!!  ;)


    After many years of attending ITF, I have a list of "Must Haves" that I share with my students in preparation for festival!  Feel free to share the list AND if you don't see your "Must Haves" then added them!!


    Air Freshener - for your room.
    Clothes Hangers
    Iron
    Hair Dryer
    Water Bottles in your fridge - You must stay hydrated!
    Shower Caddy
    Shower shoes/flip flops
    Comfortable Shoes (several pairs) - leave the new shoes at home!
    Shoes and clothes for dance & movement workshops
    Band aids
    Extra Deoderant - seriously!
    Extra socks
    Extra underwear - yes, seriously!
    Sweater/Jacket - the theatres can get cold.  My girls sit on them in the Lied since the fabric is a bit scratchy.
    Umbrella/Rain poncho - it is going to rain...
    Notebook/pens, pencils, etc
    Backpack/Tote/Messenger Bag
    Sunscreen -  if you burn easily
    Febreeze - sweat never smells nice.
    Tide To Go or Shout wipes - spills happen
    Cell phone (duh) and your charger - yes, people forget to bring them!
    Sunglasses, hat, scarf - whatever you prefer to keep the sun from getting to you.
    Dry Erase markers - you have a whiteboard on your dorm door
    Earbuds - don't irritate your roommate!
    Water bottle!

    Personally, I bring my own towel (I just like it better) and a fleece blanket to add to the bed.  I also bring extra plastic grocery bags to put in the bottom of the drawers before putting items in them.  Yes, I actually unpack...it makes it easier during the week. 

    If all else fails, there is a Walgreens just a few blocks from the Lied, so items you've forgotten can be purchased.



    My best!
