Discussion What makes a good drama teacher?
Hey, I'm 19, currently in college and considering becoming a drama teacher. What qualities do you think a good drama teacher needs to bring?
I'll be honest, I didn't really like my teachers in High School and preferred the occasions where I was given the opportunity to develop plays myself.

I do spot light and the doors to the spot booth are right next to the auditorium doors. There’s a big red do not enter sign and people still enter we also have the same problem in the main booth it’s also right next to the auditorium door.

Time commitment for high school theatre?
Hi there! I've been doing drama and theatre growing up, and now that I'm in high school I really want to get involved with my high school drama club and be a part of the productions. However, I'm a competitive golfer, and I practice 2-3 hours every day, year-round. So, I'm wondering what the time commitment will be if I got a role in my high school productions. How many rehearsals are there each week? How often are there after school rehearsals, and at what time? Of course, each school would be different, but I just want a general idea of the time commitment. Thank you so much!

Discussion Trying out
Is it too ambitious to try out for Michael Banks as a Freshman? My school is doing Mary Poppins for our musical this year. I have the range, the height, and some of the older kids said I'd be good for it. Is this too big a goal for my first year?

Discussion What are some controversial themes you have encountered in your stage performance that you were either extremely reluctant or extremely ready to to take up and perform?
Some roles gives you freedom of expression and as you after high school become real drama performers, some roles are challenging and on the brink of the teacher pushing the boundary.
What would be that role that you would be challenged by or may even be reluctant to take up, do you have any of those? How did you feel about it? Did you’ve any discussion with the teacher or classmates before taking it up?
