Hey everybody,
I'm a high school stage manager, and I'm stage managing our middle school's production of bye, bye, birdie. I recently became aware of some tension between some of the 8th graders, centering around one girl. It turns out that the reason behind all the tension is this girl doesn't want to be in the show, hates the show, and was forced into it by her parents (she didn't get cut because we don't make cuts in our musicals). The other eighth graders love the show and are really upset by this girls feelings towards the show and hesitancy to get involved in things. The other girls say if she doesn't quit the show by Tuesday, they're going to tell the director...my question is, do I go with my gut instinct to tell the director of this situation before they do?
Thanks for any input you can give,
Darcy
