New Theatre App for your iPhone/SmartPhone

Thanks to Teri Ang at Valencia Park for passing this on!

"If you have an iPhone or an Android phone you might want to check out this free drama games app, Dramativity.  It has a list of theatre activities at your fingertips. The games are from David Farmer's book 101 Drama Games. He is a theatre educator in England. This just proves there is an app for everything."

MTI News

Some of you have asked for information about the MTI School Edition titles.  These can be much more accessible and often more cost effective than doing the full productions.  For more information:  http://tinyurl.com/schooleditions
