As a Theatrical Arts Guild troupe director, your connection to theatre education is more than a membership ― it’s a yearlong investment in you and in your students.

Student Recognition

The recognition students gain through induction in their Theatrical Arts Guild - TAG school troupe signals to colleges and employers their leadership, service, and extracurricular achievements. It gives theatre students the same validation common for sports or academic success. And it’s a valuable asset when recruiting new students to your theatre program ― especially in a year when live productions may be limited.

Professional Development

Your troupe renewal comes with exclusive access to our ETAC Drama Teacher Resource Library with resources from educational theatre experts such as Don Zolidis and Stephen Gregg. Whether you’re new to the field or an expert theatre educator, we have resources that will help your delivery in the drama classroom.

Event Access

Our theatre festivals provide opportunities for learning, recognition, and life-long memories ― at the regional and national levels. Regional and national events offer our students a chance to compete for thousands of scholarship dollars, earn commendation through our national festival structure, and audition for dozens of college theatre programs.

Community Support

​As a member of ETAC, you gain access to the most engaged network of theatre educators nationwide, eager to share ideas, collaborate on problem-solving, and offer expertise.
