Notes from the Stage
Spring Play - Student Director Interest Due THURS. DEC 15
The Spring Play will be a series of student-directed one-act plays. Directing a piece is a really exciting and creatively fulfilling process, and one that we're excited to provide to a few students up for the challenge. Please fill out the form if you are interested and available (pretty much every day - barring any occasional appointments - for January and until the show Feb. 9-11). As a student director, you will be:
- working with Mrs. Jaffe to select a script (Jaffe has several ideas but wants to collaborate with you!) and apply for rights
- budget expenses from rights and scripts to costumes and props
- run auditions and cast the show
- block and choreograph scenes
- work with actors on interpretation and acting choices
- plan and execute rehearsals (with Mrs. Jaffe) and show week
This form is due by the end of the school day on Thursday, Dec. 15. Mrs. Jaffe will announce directors on Friday, Dec. 16 after school and will reach out to the selected directors to read scripts and choose pieces over break. We'll have a meeting the first week in January to make more concrete plans (knowing that you're going to be auditioning for the musical that week)!
Thank you for your interest!
