-97 Theatre is one of the few electives you can take that does virtually nothing to your social status, amirite?

I was elected to the homecoming court because of theatre. I'm not saying I was the fucking queen bee of the school, but that's how people knew me.

Actually, my school does have the "drama kids"

by Anonymous 12 years ago

At my school, all the drama kids are weirdos. I love theater, and would like to take part, but that would be social suicide.

The theater kids at my school are really popular.

I like drama for that reason. There are always the most interesting personalities in drama.

oh yeah. Its pretty much my favorite movie. Its so accurate. The lunchroom scene is spot on. "unfriendly black hotties", "sexually active band geeks". its perfect.

We have two different types of theatre kids at my school. There are the ones who do the actual high school musicals, and the ones who go to a magnet school for performing arts. I go to the magnet school. Despite the fact that we put on incredibly professional shows and could undoubtedly kick high school musical ass, my magnet school is virtually ignored and the musical kids get all the acting cred. Why yes, I am bitter. Got robbed of the superlative.

Nope. Theater kids in my school are either weird or just normal. Choir is fine for girls, and fine for guys as long as they also do some kind of sport. All the wanna-be gangsta kids do art, or skip it. And the guys who don't want to do any of those do one of the tech classes. Which is fine even if they don't do a sport. My school is pretty chill.

Sorry, I guess my school is different. I'm from Texas, so the departments that really separate you from everybody are Football (they become gods among men), Drill team (they are a fortress of solitude), and Band/orchestra (they mostly just talk to each other). I figured it was this way everywhere. In my theatre department, we have a little bit of everything. We're all together in the theatre, of course, but we also do other things. We have soccer players and singers and artists and computer nerds. That's why I like it so much.
