  • 1.  FAVE MAGAZINE/CATALOG SUBSCRIPTIONS?

    Posted 03-10-2016 14:46

    Of COURSE we all love Dramatics (((grin))), but what other paper periodicals do you keep around your classroom/department?

    For example: 

    I like to even get Better Homes and Garden so when my Theatre I's do their Set Design project we have plenty to pull from.

    but I also get the Strand Lighting catalog.

    You?

    These are all paper publications:

    Stage Directions Magazine, which is free - www.stagedirections.com

    Projection, Lights, & Staging News (also free) - www.plsn.com

    Theatre Design and Technology, the USITT journal - USITT- A Lifetime of Learning | USITT

    The Dover Publications catalog (lots of art history, architecture, details, graphic design, etc.) - Dover | Dover Publications | Dover Books

    The RoseBrand catalog - Rosebrand.com

    There are lots more, but these should get you started with tech stuff.

    I bring in my American Theatre magazine (Theatre Communications Group, or TCG) every month after I read it. The pictures of plays and musicals onstage are really extraordinary, and the ads for schools are interesting to my students.

    Teaching Drama is one that I e-subscribe to; it's an English periodical that has great articles I pull from quite often. 

    Love the suggestions put forward! Thanks!
