HOW DO I KNOW WHO IS IN MY TROUPE?
Answer: Great question. Log into your myedta account, "My Troupe/School/Org", then click on "Manage Roster". Also read "Running a Troupe" and on your log in page you can see any outstanding balances, orders, etc. through EdTA.
WHO IS EdTA?
Answer: They are our parent organization. It stands for Educational Theatre Association. You can read more here.
HOW DO I START A TROUPE?
Answer: Read "Running a Troupe" and go here. Also, email us or Cammy Bihl to see if your school has an active troupe or previously active troupe.
WHAT DO I NEED TO DO AS A TROUPE DIRECTOR EACH YEAR?
Answer: First, log into your myedta account. There you can see where things are now. Make sure all bills and memberships are paid up. Check to see who is officially inducted under your roster. Then set up dates for any yearly inductions, meetings, events, to set the tone and map out the year. From there "ACT WELL YOUR PART, THEREIN ALL THE HONOR LIES." Let us know how we can support you throughout the year!
HOW DO I KNOW WHO CAN GO TO VTF?
Answer: All students 6th-12th grade (11-18 years old) are welcome. We ask you travel with a school program and if you do not have a school program, email us to inquire. All theatre teachers/directors are welcome. If you are not a troupe director, consider being a partner like a college, guest artist, vendor, or alumni volunteer.
HOW DO I CALCULATE POINTS OR KEEP TRACK OF THEM?
Answer: We have a suggested template but this is for a program averaging 5-7 shows a year. If you need to scale up or down any point values based on your program, feel free to do so.
AS A NEW DIRECTOR, WHERE DO I BEGIN?
Answer: See if you have an account with myedta. Then if you do not, make an account. If you do, check tour "personal snapshot" to look at your rosters, etc. Read advice above for the applicable information. Feel free to email us or submit a specific question you have above so we can best help/support you.
WHAT OTHER EVENTS DO YOU HAVE?
Answer: We have our Virginia Thespian Festival in January, an advocacy day we are hoping to build in March around #TheatreinOurSchools month or so, Thespian Educator Intensive teacher pd in August, a statewide NYC trip, and we are building more events as we grow!
