If you love drama, then my suggestion would be to continue at it. It sounds like you are in a pretty tough situation though witht that partner of yours, so here are two possible resolution. Stay in the class, and if she continues not to work with you, then do it all by yourself (if possible) and afterwards, make sure to tell the teacher that you did the project all by yourself. And besides, if it is more of a presentation about a person or something, then the girl is going to look stupid and dumb anyway, so she’ll be humiliated in front of her friends AND the teacher will know who did the work. That is one option. The other option only works if you are not a senior (it sounds like you aren’t one, but I don’t know for sure). Drop the class, and sign up for it next year without those seniors who are there this year. This option also works if that project requires the participation of two people. I’m sorry that you are stuck in this kind of situation. If you really don’t want to drop the class though, then I guess you’ll just have to stick it out with those seniors. I don’t know what to say about the teacher though with her “humor” thing. Good luck!

This is one subject that has lasting value. It is just as good as a physical self defense program, but is almost better, because it deals with psychology. I took drama through high school. I also was active in gymnastics, and self defense, Judo. After that, after a year or so, I went to Sports Entertainment trainning. Pro Wrestling School, ONLY after auditioning, to see if I was moldable material. I knew I was. Then, theatrical trainning really began. It helps you in all aspects. Sure, I made it, and did 3 TV tapings. Then, it fizzled. But, I won, because I kept all the knowledge taught to me. No, not putting the smack down on someone. Dealing with the mental games. Big company dealings. It feels good, if I have to ‘play’ the game sometimes. Bottom line in your case, stick with it. Let it flow. Be involved, and don’t give in to quitting. You can work it to your best interests. My best performances, were when they were taking my performance, and thinking it was really real. If they only knew. Don’t quite. Perfect your art.

Stick it out. Drama is fun, and the older kids won’t bother you if you learn to ignore them. You’ll get your reward next year, when you’re the one with experience.

u shoudn’t quit this
