Nope, only high school. A lot of people I've talked have had the same opinion as well.

At this point in your "career" include everything on your resume.
You can scale it down once you have more professional work.

I would put anything that was reasonably an actual performance for many people. This wouldn't include something like "My class came up with a skit in second grade and we showed it to the rest of the second grade classes." I would say if you've put a good amount of time into it outside of school hours that it would be good to put on you resume at this point in your career. When more shows come along in the future, these kinds of things would of course be the first ones to disappear in your list of "Selected Works."

I would not go back to elementary school if you are a junior or senior in highschool. If you are a freshman, then fine. But I know if you are in college you NEVER put stuff from your high school days/elementary school days because that's just ridiculous and looking at the "old glory days." I'd stick to things you've done in the past couple of years. Keep it very professional. Don't use the templates in word for resumes because EVERYONE uses those, and people get sick of looking at them.
