I used to feel like students would not choose titles that were "good for them." I still think that is true to some degree. They just don't have the experience to know enough titles and genres. But there is also something to be said for student buy-in and having an enthusiastic audience. After we returned ...

Did you ever get a Musical Theater course UC A-G approved? I'm working on writing this course right now and I'd rather not re-invent the wheel. Or does anyone have this to share? There is a file under shared resources, but my computer can't open the document for some reason. Thanks to anyone who can ...

Jana, did you ever get your Musical Theatre course A-G approved?

I always refer to the Thespian Society as an Honor Society for Theatre Arts. Being a Thespian gives our students a little advantage at our school. They get first dibs on field trips, have a star after their names in the program for our shows, and they get to wear the honor cord at graduation. This ...

Thank you for pointing that out. I hadn't noticed the Southeast region specified because it wasn't in the entry guidelines. Perhaps Frieda would be willing to open it up nationwide or allow us to duplicated her idea for the west? Thanks, Summer ------------------------------ Summer Heartt Theatre ...

We didn't end up removing any of the language, and didn't have any issues from audience members (that I know of). The show was a tremendous challenge. Every single kid needed to learn either how to sing, act, or dance (cheer), and some of them had to learn all three! But they learned so much and the ...
