What happens when your strongest student leaders graduate?

For many theatre programs, leadership disappears and the cycle starts over.

The most sustainable programs don't rely on a few exceptional students—they continuously develop new leaders.

Leadership training should begin long before students become Crew Chiefs or production leaders.

The bonus? Students gain skills they'll use in college, careers, and life.

I've created a free guide with practical ideas for developing student leadership in your theatre program.

Just because a student is talented doesn't automatically make them a strong leader.

One of the most common mistakes in school theatre is promoting students into leadership roles without giving them the tools to succeed.

Crew Chiefs need more than responsibility—they need training, clear expectations, and support.

When student leaders are developed intentionally, productions run more smoothly, students grow in confidence, and theatre programs become stronger.

I've put together a free guide that shares some of the leadership principles we've used to develop student leaders and Crew Chiefs.

One of the biggest mistakes theatre teachers make is trying to do everything themselves.

The strongest theatre programs aren't built by one person—they're built by developing student leaders who can take ownership, solve problems, and help move the program forward.

Crew Chiefs and student leaders need more than a title. They need training, guidance, and opportunities to grow.

In this short video, Chip Rome shares why student leadership is one of the most important investments you can make in your theatre program.
