These days it's common for a high school to rent their theatre out to the community and host other schools in their district, as well as use it for their own school events. High school theatres often host such a variety of different events that they essentially operate as a "roadhouse", which can cause a variety of conflicts between its users. The band teacher complains that the drama teacher is always leaving the lighting system set up wrong, and the drama teacher complains that the band teacher is always leaving the lighting system set up with no color. The choir teacher stays out of the fray because he doesn't know how to operate the lighting system at all. The outside events that rent the theatre are frustrated by the amount of time it takes them to figure out how the lighting system is set up while they are paying for the rental at an hourly rate. Does this sound like a familiar scenario at your school? If it does, this book is for you. Although every event that comes into a theatre is unique, there is a way to provide a lighting system that can easily be applied to many uses of the space. This is called a Rep Plot (short for Repertory Plot). A Rep Plot is a standardized lighting system, which is versatile for almost all performances and can be easily adapted to provide lighting for any event from class meetings, speakers, film presentations, variety shows, band and choir concerts to plays, musicals and dance recitals, while allowing for show-specific flexibility within a reasonable time frame. This book will take you through a step-by-step process to design, hang, focus and patch your own rep plot at your high school. If you've never had a Rep Plot before, or if your Rep Plot needs a bit of TLC, once you follow the step-by-step process in this book to design, hang, focus and patch your own rep plot, you will be able to tame the Chaos inherent in running a "roadhouse" in a high school setting.
Nya, an inner-city public high school teacher, is committed to her students but desperate to give her only son Omari opportunities they’ll never have. When a controversial incident at his upstate private school threatens to get him expelled, Nya must confront his rage and her own choices as a parent. But will she be able to reach him before a world beyond her control pulls him away? With profound compassion and lyricism, Pipeline brings an urgent conversation powerfully to the fore. Morisseau pens a deeply moving story of a mother’s fight to give her son a future — without turning her back on the community that made him who he is.
When Irena Gut witnessed a Nazi officer murder a baby and its mother in front of her eyes, she could do nothing. Then and there, she made a vow to God that if she ever had the opportunity to save a life, she would do it. But she did much more than that. When she was appointed the housekeeper for a German major, the highest-ranking German officer in Tarnopol, Poland, Irena saved thirteen lives by hiding twelve Jews in her employer’s basement, without his knowledge, for eight months. The thirteenth life she saved was a baby who was conceived in hiding. Now a major motion picture starring Sophie Nélisse, Irena’s Vow is one of the most remarkable, true stories of courage to come out of the Holocaust.
“A masterpiece . . . Trouble in Mind still contains astonishing power; it could have been written yesterday.” —Vulture Ahead of its time, Trouble in Mind, written in 1955, follows the rehearsal process of an anti-lynching play preparing for its Broadway debut. When Wiletta, a Black actress and veteran of the stage, challenges the play’s stereotypical portrayal of the Black characters, unsettling biases come to the forefront and reveal the ways so-called progressive art can be used to uphold racist attitudes. Scheduled to open on Broadway in 1957, Childress objected to the requested changes in the script that would “sanitize” the play for mainstream audiences, and the production was canceled as a result. Childress’s final script is published here with an essay by playwright Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, editor of TCG Illuminations.
