The Terry Knickerbocker Studio has awarded scholarships to four students from Brooklyn's Uncommon Charter High School to its Summer Acting Intensive for High School Students. The Studio's programs are typically focused on college-level or older students, including many professionals refining their craft throughout their careers. Yet, in order to engage the next generation of theatre artists, the Studio has added a two-week, intensive, conservatory-style program to enable high school students to hone their acting skills, cultivate their unique voices, and prepare for the future.

I’m so excited to share another DITL blog post! This time, it’s the tech week version! Since this was the first tech of the summer, it was not quite as hectic as changeover (72 hours to go from one show to the next, including strike, load-in, focus, and tech) will be, but it was a great introduction to how professional tech functions!

            What can we learn from letting seventh graders take the SAT?In the 1960s, psychologist Julian Stanley realized that if you took the best-testing seventh graders from around the country and gave them standard college entry exams, those kids would score, on average, about as well as the typical college-bound high school senior.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.
