I have done several devised prices with my advanced theater class. We have a "Writing Across The Curriculum" initiative and this has been a good way for me to incorporate writing into my theater classes. The subjects ranged from women's issues to economic disparity to the search for an individual identity. ...

I've used EF and Explorica for trips to London and, while both were good experiences, EF was easier to work with and did more to customize the trip for us.

It should be 20 to 30 minutes or two 10-minute pieces. They rehearse it in class, which meets 3x a week, and then perform it at the end of the semester, as part of a larger Middle School Performing Arts Showcase that also features other performances. Thanks! ------------------------------ ...

I am looking for readers theater scripts to use with my large (20+ kids) middle school theater class.

We did A Midsummer Night's Dream several years ago and set it in the 1960's/1970's with a Peter Max inspired production design. The set featured three false prosceniums painted to look like swirling indigo clouds, with Christmas lights inserted into them to serve as stars for the night scenes. They were ...

This particular group is a bit unruly at times, but creative and enthusiastic about the games and activities we have been doing. I was ...

We had a lot of fun this past fall with the comedy murder mystery DON'T BE AFRAID OF THE DARK. Instead of keeping it contemporary, we set it in 1950 and did it all in black and white as a kind of film noir spoof. The transition of time period not only works without any script modifications, but also ...

I am thinking of doing Macbeth with my upper school students next year because I will have some really strong seniors, including a great candidate for Mackie himself, and a two terrific Lady Mackie possibilities.

I teach at an independent school that uses the traditional letter grade system (A,B,C,D and F). Participation and effort is the most important element in determining grades in my theater classes and students usually get B's and A's.

We charge $125 for the inside front/back cover $100 for a full-page and $75 for a half page. We rarely have business ads - most are from cast family members... the "Congratulations and Best Wishes..." type of thing. I did offer a business card size option one year for $35, but had no takers. ...
