School Daze

Excellent!!! I love the flexibility of the characters. Good play about the joys and horrors of Jr.High/Middle School.

I love this show!

Very relatable; kids loved it and audience loved it!

The students embraced the idea of this performance and really enjoyed playing the characters.

Our production was well received by adults and our middle school audience.

The students loved seeing snapshots of middle school life and found it easy to connect to. Our student performers had some really great conversations around different issues they personally have dealt with or seen other kids deal with. During a time when our students have really been closed off from each other and activities they are involved in, we needed this show more than we all realized.

The sixth graders had a fantastic time rehearsing and performing "School Daze"! It is full of energy, humor, and even a few poignant moments. Audiences loved it, too!

We have done this play three times now across many years. It's a crowd pleaser for sure! Students identify with the characters and situations as well as the audiences of all ages. Easy costumes, no set, light props and super easy to direct.

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.
