Junior Thespian Society

“Act well your part, there all the honour lies.”
-Alexander Pope from An Essay on Man, Epistle IV (1733–1734)

What is Junior thespian society?
Picture
Sponsored by the Education Theatre Association, this student-led, teacher sponsored troupe acknowledges young thespians (actor/technicians) who are participating in the theater arts in their school and community.
 Academic success in other subjects as well as contributions to local and educational theater earn the student points towards induction into Thespian Society.

Once points are documented, submitted and approved the student becomes a Junior Thespian which prepares them for the high school theater environment and beyond.

After earning points at the middle school level they will automatically be eligible for the high school troupe and be able to attend the Virginia Theatre Conference to audition for colleges and summer theater programs across the US.

Jr. Thespian Society Officers

Troupe Officers By-Laws
All Thespian troupe officers must be officially inducted members of the International Thespian Society and their troupe. Non-member students may serve as officers on a temporary basis as long as they are inducted into ITS by the end of that school year. Most often this is done to accommodate officers in a new theatre program or school. We recommend that student officers be appointed or elected immediately after a troupe has been chartered. Regular elections near the close of the school year (for the following year) will ensure that officers are ready to serve when students return in the fall. 

Serving as a troupe officer gives inductees additional opportunities to develop leadership skills and grow as a person. Troupe officers can assist the busy troupe director in numerous ways with troupe and theatre program activities. Officer positions include president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, and historian. Other offices such as webmaster, theatre advocacy chair, publicity chair, and TOTS-EAT chair may be added to the troupe’s constitution at the troupe’s discretion. They’re a great way to increase student involvement and recognition.
