We did CLUE last year, I found this in my files. I can't guarantee how complete it is and I think it should match up pretty well with the high school edition. Hope it helps. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CweJbJnpnl-40UN8mhKUSKxEv0IyV84WosI46XwChAM/edit?usp=sharing ------------------------------ ...

I looked at the perusals of both versions and didn't really see much difference at all. We chose the 'Regular' and had a fun time with the production. I can't recall exactly what differences there might have been, but there didn't seem to be much change from one version to another. Have a great time ...

We have also used Rick Frendt - and agree that he is affordable and does great work. I'd add that he is easy to contact and was super fast responding. It was my first time using professional projections and we would gladly use his work in the future. Kate Kate Lindsay Theatre Director, Salina High ...

We recognize new Thespians, students who letter (we use the ITS point procedure for lettering, too), we vote on 'Thespians Of the Month' or TOM awards each month so they get an additional shout out at our awards, and have recognition of Seniors, too. Additional highlights I usually add are to recognize ...

We just finished CLUE a couple of weeks ago and had a blast. We built several door units and used the main floor area for each room. We had a long dining table - made with tall desk units we already had from our production of Radium Girls - that rolled out and back. It was a super easy scene change for ...

Hello to all, I'm the chair for the Kansas Thespians college audition process and we are in the planning stages for an in-person festival this year (fingers crossed).

I don't see this sticker in the thespian store. I'm curious to know if it will be available again or if it is simply no longer available. I have purchased these for many years and may seek something similar elsewhere if it's no longer available. Thank you,Kate Lindsay Kate Lindsay Theatre Director, ...

Hello, Our school has been in-person (hybrid or other) all year. Our auditions have been in-person with a virtual option for any students unable to audition. At times students have also participated in rehearsals via zoom. I realize we have been very fortunate to have in-person rehearsals. We had performances ...

I'm curious to know others' thoughts & advice on this as well. I don't think this is dumb at all or if it is, I'm on this same train!

You're getting wonderful tips here - I will probably be using these suggestions, too! Another tip I learned from a colleague that helps with transitions is to simply give them a countdown to move to a circle or to get into place... 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1. They have a little time to move to a circle ...

It might be helpful to look into Lovewell Institute for the Creative Arts. www.lovewell.org Lovewell does just this - writes original musicals with students for students.
