  • 1.  HS Classroom Set Up

    Posted 08-08-2022 11:07
    Hello all! I am returning to the theatre classroom after being away for ten years. I will also be teaching HS for the first time (previously MS). I have a black box theatre as my classroom and I'm looking for ideas to decorate it in an inviting, relevant, inclusive way. My first question - Has anyone come across any posters of BIPOC and/or LGBTQIA+ theatre practitioners? Secondly, what are some of your favorite go-tos or must-haves for setting up your classroom space?

    Thank you in advance!

    I don't know about posters, but there are some pretty fine shots on the FB page for Original Practice Shakespeare in Portland, OR.  (Full disclosure, I'm one of their summer SMs.)  They are a happily inclusive company representing many different genders as well as actively adding BIPOC actors.  

    You can find out more at their website:  OPSFest.org

    Hope that's a little helpful?

    Ludlam Dramatics has some terrific theatre posters about content, good practices, and inspiration.  They are offering several right now that might be what you are looking for.

    Best wishes for a great year as you return to teaching theatre arts!
