High School Theatre Program
Ever wonder how the plays you see in high school end up on the stage? The Production Phases of a High School Theatre Program offers a glimpse into the world of a stereotypical theatre class. Take a journey through the many phases of a production, from the first day to the final bow. Phases include: the posting of the cast list, off book date, tech week, opening night, and more. The production phases are shown through your stereotypical theatre students like the diva, the overly dramatic, the extremely dedicated, and even the kid who only took a drama class to earn a fine arts credit. This hilarious one-act will have everyone laughing while your actors try to guess which theatre student they are, and your audience gets a glimpse of all the work that goes into creating a play.
