Hello All,
Today we paint the back of the stage. Yes...it is our responsibility and a sign of good faith.
The Theater Arts Department needs to maintain a standard of excellence.
Having us bring the stage space back to "normal status" helps us maintain the support and respect of the school and
Administration.
We will start at 12:30 p.m. (please arrive between 12:15 and 12:30 p.m.)
I will get folks pizza and what-not (Dan is in charge of the ordering).
If we have a ton of folks it will not take long at all. I will be
getting more rollers and pans this morning.
Tomorrow I will take a select few to begin our hunt for costumes. We will meet at school at 12:30 p.m.
I am thrilled to announce that Kathy McGeehan is going to be our prop/costume Guru again this season!!!!!!!!
She rocks!
Thank you all for helping out.
Lys

JHS Theater Arts Show Case Resource Page
Dear Show Case Cast Members,
Please take a moment and browse through the links listed on our resource page.
You must choose your monologues/scenes by the end of January.
I look forward to seeing what might interest you.
Take a moment to also read the "Dos and Donts on Choosing a Monologue". I think you will find the article a wonderful guide on your way to choosing material for your performance.
Take Care,
