"I
wish I had this book before I
started my 25-year teaching career.
It
made me smile often as I read
things I learned quickly, things
I learned
slowly, and some things
I wish I had learned before I left
the classroom!
Thanks, Gai and
Diane, for teaching students
and teachers from your
heart."
Michael Peitz, Executive Director,

“Gai Jones and Diane DeJulio have combined their considerable talents
to put together a succinct, clever and very readable book about theatre
tips. Gai Jones has provided many useful hints and ideas for theatre teachers.
Diane has made available interesting illustrations which she has allowed
to be reproduced. Bravo!”
Linda deBaun Theatre director, Theatre and English teacher,
Yucaipa High School.
“The book made me laugh aloud several times as I remembered the truths
on the pages; losing keys, having the district do outrageously stupid “improvements” to
the theater, like (wanting to put a “nice hardwood floor” on the
stage) and how the programs NEVER were error free! It was as if 35 years of my
professional life reappeared before my eyes.”
Barbara Masters, Emeritus member of DTASC, CA Thespians,
State Board, Teaching Artist for LA County Center Theatre Group, Professional
Expert LAUSD.
"I have taught theatre for over 25 years, and this book put
into words so many of my thoughts. It also reminded me of why I
became a theatre teacher. It made me laugh and made me realize why what
I do is important."
Stacey Bailey, Theatre Teacher, School of Film
and Technology coordinator, Head of Arts Dept. West Valley High School,
Who's who of American teachers, California State Thespian Board, Bravo
Award nominee, Disney teacher of the year nominee.
