Greetings!
On behalf of the entire Board of Directors, I'd like to personally thank you for becoming a part of Texas Thespians.
If you have not already done so, I encourage you to join a couple of Facebook pages:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/482439465114689 (for Junior Directors)
https://www.facebook.com/groups/TexasThespians (our group page for Troupe Directors and Professional members)
and be sure to Like and Follow https://www.facebook.com/TexasThespians
I have included a link to Troupe 6391's handbook. Feel free to make a copy of it and to suit it to your troupe. Our troupe requires 30 points to be inducted because we are a fine arts school and we have over 40 performances a year!
The national recommendation is 10 points, so change accordingly. Included in our handbook, you’ll also find a link to our online point system, or you can go with the International Thespian Society's paper copy.
International Thespian Society also has TIPS, the Thespian Induction Point System, which is another way of tracking points.
Schooltheatre.org is where you can find additional information on Trick or Treat so Kids Can Eat, the International Thespian Society's canned food drive; Broadway Cares/Equity Fights Aids, and how to send students to the International Thespian Festival.
Of course, our website has all the information you’d ever want or need about our annual Texas Thespian Festival. Be sure to check out our State Festival page for important information on how to get to Texas Thespian festival!
We would love for you to volunteer with us! I know you might need a while before jumping into the fun, but whenever you're ready, just go to our volunteer form.
Finally, make plans now to attend our Educator's Conference! This will be a time for you to attend workshops, earn TEA approved Continuing Professional Education and to network with other directors throughout the state.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. Again, we are so glad you are a part of the Texas Thespians!
