I did this show years ago with no problems. Are there any issues you are especially concerned with? The only issue I spent time on was with the gun, but I had Christine take the gun offstage to commit suicide, which makes sense and was probably even suggested in the script. (I used a starter gun, I think...but ...

I know you've all seen the SNL sketches about high school theatre and the use of black cubes. Yeah, I love those boxes and use them a lot! What I can't figure out what to do is how to reduce the stickiness they have when stacked, especially during a show in which they move from scene to scene. Any ideas? ...

You do not need to be designated CTE. I suspect you are considered to be a Visual and Fine Arts teacher and not part of the CTE department within your school.

The end scene is not at all intimidating and doesn't require elaborate effects. In fact, I would URGE you to treat this piece with honesty and simplicity. It is ...

I have directed both and am a big fan of the original. Yes, the revised has new songs, a jazzed-up orchestration, etc. But I think that may be its flaw. When I did the revised version years ago, I promised myself I would return to the original if I ever did it again. I think the show works best as a ...

I usually do my own trips to NYC but am looking to take a larger group and need to use a tour company. It has been years since I used one and am looking for suggestions and/or warnings about tour companies you have used. Thanks! ------------------------------------------- Tim Brown Greenville ...

For several years I have considered rethinking how I handle awards. And I would love some ideas. Right now, everyone who is an active member votes on all performance awards, even if they haven't seen all shows. This leads me to two questions: what awards are others actually giving out and how do you ...
