How do I Maintain Work/Life Balance as a Theatre Teacher? - Transcript

I wanted to let you know that we just finished our production of School Daze. My middle school students performed it at an in-school assembly (audience was K-8) and it was wildly popular. The staff and parents loved it was well. I had several people who stopped by to tell me that they particularly loved how "real" the play was. Characters like Marty/Edwin, MacGregor/MacDougal and Cara/Tammy allowed my students to go full out with characterization. Thank you for stocking plays like this - large and flexible casting, lots of short scenes, quick and active, with content that doesn't talk down to my students. These plays are hard to come by, especially with content appropriate for a public middle school.

We have been using your scripts for a few years, after I met Lindsay Price at the EDTA convention. Last year we performed Drop Dead, Juliet! at the International Thespian Festival. I really like your scripts because they are timely, age-appropriate and don't have bad words in them.

This resource is better than any textbook. It is a living, breathing, up-to-date, real-life resource that should be in hands of every Theater Arts teacher in the country.
