Hi Nathan, This is my 3rd year with ITS and I'm still figuring it out. I do charge the students the $35 Induction fee, but do not charge seniors for cords. I feel they are the reason we have a program and if we haven't made enough money throughout the year to spend a couple of hundreds in them, I'm ...

we used NO backdrop. Our orchestra sets up backstage, and the back wall is painted black.  They wore kerchiefs and cowboy hats in the Cowboy Bob scene, but otherwise were seen in the back behind the audience.  i recurved great feedback- the audience loved seeing them perform when cast was not in ...

My kids STILL talk about Almost, Maine. All Fall Plays are compared to it. We had MANY LAYERS, with red long johns at the bottom. The audience laughed harder and harder with every layer. I would not skimp on it! The "romance" is very implied, but we promoted the show as PG. Have the best time with ...

I am a believer in color-blind casting for all middle-school and HS productions. We have a limited casting pool, and our purpose is to offer opportunities to students, expose them to different ideas and work together to put on a great show.  Go go with your best audition, and best of luck! --- ...

Amber, and the others performing Trap, How would you identify the target audience for this show? Would you rate it PG13, or is it "family-friendly"? I am very interested, but want to make sure I know if this is something I should dissuade someone with an 8 year old from attending.  Thank you for ...

Hi Cherie, We performed R&H’s Cinderella last Spring, and it was fabulous- and beautiful. I am very particular about costuming, and we used softer spring colors for ensemble in the image scene, with the stepmother and step sisters in bolds- Gold, orange and teal. Boys wore shirts with collars removed ...

As a relatively new Theatre Director at a High School, I am wondering what is an average for pit budgets. We have a mix of students, adults and adults who work in district making up our orchestra from year to year, and this year I have been presented a budget of $4000 for 6 adults, 1 recent HS grad and ...

We also enter each student and parent into our Theater Gmail account, creating a contact list for cast, crew and parents for each show.  Students know the site is updated each Sunday, and if we need to make a ...
