    I teach high school theatre. Has anyone done Tim Kelly's The Canterville Ghost?  If so did you like it and do you think my Childrens Theatre class would enjoy performing it. Also any suggestions for my advanced theatre class. I was thinking of Animal Farm and I need another one but I'm stuck... Any thoughts?
    Thank you, Melissa Albertson

    Hello,

    I would suggest looking at materials from the Power Tool Institute at http://www.powertoolinstitute.com/
    They have a wealth of information in regard to safety and tool use. Additionally, look at
    the CTE website https://www.cteonline.org/ where you can find lesson plans and
    other support materials.

    In regard to all of the skills you may find yourself teaching, make certain that you know what you are talking about and can verify your own training and/or competency. You can't just "wing it".

    I have attached some of the competency testing materials I use in my classes.

    Best Wishes,

    Dana

    Tim Kelly is a bit dumb down for high schoolers.  Try Jersey Midsummer by Ken Ludwig.  Lots of parts and in their age range characters.
