Inspirational Quotes from Musicals

While I gather my thoughts and get ready to start a new series, this post is just a small break between series. Thanks to many people in the Facebook group, Theatre Teacher Lesson Lending for the idea.

Here are some inspirational quotes from musicals. If you are a teacher that has a classroom, you may want to find an appropriate picture and put one of these quotes on the picture. Obviously, this can be done with as many quotes as you'd like. You can then have the poster with the quote printed out as a picture at places like FedEx or Office Depot and have inspirting decorations for your classroom.
