Producing a Play: Getting Started

Producing a play or musical doesn't have to be a hair-raising or hair-graying experience.  All it takes is desire, organization and knowledge (some resources help too!).  While we can't make you want to produce a play or produce a play for you, what we can do is help you organize your efforts and give you the knowledge to make it a successful experience for all involved.  Whether you want to learn how to produce a play or just need some ideas in a few specific areas, you've come to the right place.

ProduceAPlay.com is here to serve as a comprehensive--and always free--guide for those who have the desire to produce theatre, be it at a middle school, high school, college, community or professional theatre.  We are just moving in, and while there's already an enormous amount of useful content on the site, there is much more to come.  So check back "early and often," and if you have specific questions, please contact us and we will answer them on the site.  It's a great way to get your questions answered and help us grow at the same time.  Happy producing!
