Question

My wife runs a drama and acting school. She asks whether it is permissible to conduct acting lessons during the Nine Days. Some women claim that since it is an enjoyable experience, it is forbidden. I would like to emphasize that no music is played during the lesson, there is no dancing, and canceling the lesson would create difficulties in completing it.

Answer

Hello 

There is no prohibition against conducting lessons during the Nine Days, even if they are enjoyable. 

Of course, it is not appropriate to schedule entertainment programs for these days, but when it comes to regular study sessions, there is no issue.
