Hi All! It's killing me! I have to find this scene / short play I saw at State competition last school year and I've looked everywhere. When the students slated, they said that the scene was called something like "Always" from a book of 10-minute plays. The scene has 2 F/ 2M and really creatively depicts ...

Hi! Our High School Troupe did this show last year at home and at one-Act competition. It was a SUPER enlightening experience for us on many levels. It's wonderful because you as the director have a blank slate with creativity. We first brought one of the science teachers to one of our rehearsals and ...

Thank you all for the help. The bottom line for us is that it IS the perfect show for our students this year and we are doing it AFTER they are - two totally different communities of people. Our Orlando district is huge. Ours is east side. They are north side Winter Garden. This year, after I booked ...

There is a school in our district that is doing a particular show in October 2018. I feel like this show is absolutely perfect for our school this year as well. Our production would be in March 2019. Would it be tacky to book the same show? Our schools are in two different areas of Orlando. They are ...

Hello! I am wanting to plan a trip to London with my troupe for summer 2019. I’m currently talking with a company called Explorica which specializes in educational tours. Couple questions for those who have succeeded at this: 1. Which company did you use? 2. What was the cost per person? 3. How many ...

Hugh and Benjamin, I thank you SOO much for your replies and insight. Hugh, I'm glad you decided to weigh in on the discussion! I DO believe it is the right show.

In reviewing musicals for this coming school year, Hairspray has continually come to mind as the perfect fit for my students. 2 queries continually come to mind: 1. In considering cast, not to pre-cast, but I have an African American male who would be PERFECT for the role of Edna Turnblad. Knowing ...

Thank you for your helpful comments Jeannie! You're right in taking it and making it my own. My main concern is the brand new Thespian troupe. Will it be in danger if 7 were inducted at the end of the school year in May, and 3 leave for homeschool? Will we still be active? Will we be able to go to districts? ...

Absolutely! It's good advice to wait. The issue for us is that we are a Charter School - Very rapidly growing. Any students, technically, are allowed to participate in our school by lottery, or being in our district. Our school is new - 2010 opening. The theater program is large. Lots of helicopter parents ...

Hi, Incredibly Knowledgeable Instructors, I am new to the school where I am currently. The Thespian Troupe is also new, as of last school year. There are 7 members on Troupe roll currently. 3 of those students are leaving the school to be homeschooled. In asking administration if those homeschool ...
