SPRING PERFORMANCE
Each year we complete a full stage musical that includes costumes, music, makeup, and all the trimmings. Students will have to audition for an on-stage role in the show. While each student may not receive their dream role, they will receive a role on the stage that includes featured lines.
This year’s play has not been chosen yet and will be announced at our first drama club meeting. Auditions are tentatively scheduled for the third week of February. Students will have to sign up for an audition time and prepare 60 seconds of a song to sing.
To participate in the Spring Play there is a $50 show fee which is applied towards the overall production budget of the show. It is requested that each student pays the 1st installment of the fee ($25) before the start of rehearsals to ensure that we have the rights, scripts, and royalties associate with the show. Students can pay the remainder of the fee through ticket sales, program ad sales, or individual fundraising.
Rehearsals will run from February till May. Rehearsal schedules will be available via the club canvas site and the club remind notification.
