Tips from past Producers

Read, read, and re-read the script multiple times before staging and casting; there are nuances that if missed can affect the audience's understanding of the message.

Involve the students in design work - my students were involved in the set and make-up design and creation and making contributions to the creative process enhanced their experience.
