How To Be
In The Spotlight
It's easy to have the Spotlight shine on you. If you wish
to Spotlight your theatre or your individual work for a
period of 30 - 45 days on the TYA/USA website, simply
provide the following information
the TYA/USA Spotlight Editor:
|
1. Confirmation that you are a member of TYA/USA
in good standing (we'll take your word, but
check with the home office). |
|
2. A short (100 words or less) mission statement
and description of your theatre or bio for an
individual. |
|
3. A short (200 words or less) description of
what project(s) you are currently engaged in –
basically the hottest things on your plate. |
|
4. A 'headshot' for an individual or 3-4
production shots for a company. |
You may provide more information, including news releases,
etc., but we only guarantee to run the above. We will
spotlight companies and individuals fundamentally in the
order in which the information is received; however, there
will be editorial license to ensure diversity
geographically, stylistically, etc.
