Hi, all, Has anyone built the buck rail fence for The Laramie Project? I heard of a company that had each cast member lay down a part of the fence to create it, which sounds cool, but I'm not even sure what to ask for at a building supply store. Thanks for any help you can give. ------------------------------ ...

It took three years to get back the $7000 they owed us. Our school lawyer had to get involved. One day, they returned the money. I can not believe they are still doing business. Do NOT work with them. Sent from my iPhone

Definitely do the teen version. The original has a bunch of sex scenes — or at least moaning people’s names in the middle of a sex act. That’s pretty much the big difference. Sent from my iPhone

Great question. I’m currently taking a class with the ADL on bias and one sentence we’ve been discussing is “nothing about us without us.” This has made me consider inviting guest speakers to help me teach plays in which I am not the main identity. I also wonder if there are playwrights of color ...

Sonoma State University in Northern California has an amazing one that we rented, created by a woman who worked with the Muppets. It was pretty expensive, and I don't know if it travels, but you should also check out productions in your area to see if there's one nearby. ------------------------------ ...

It's a story for Mary Bennett -- the studious daughter who gets little airtime in Pride and Prejudice. One doesn't need to know the original book in order ...
