Silence can be golden!

I wish this sign wasn't necessary. Actually, I wish it was flashing somewhere in the room during rehearsals! There are conversations going on during the rehearsals that take away or slow down the group's progress. Once people understand that our time together is at a premium perhaps the level of concentration will improve. I'm convinced that half of the time students don't even realize they are communicating with each other, but that doesn't excuse it. If everyone would just set a goal to not respond to the invitation to talk, we would accomplish so much more during our short rehearsal times!
