WELCOME Dear Parents, Alumnae, and Friends, Welcome to Rosary Academy's 55th production of Red & Gold! This time-honored tradition is uniquely Rosary, and for more than 55 years, our Royals have captivated audiences - often surprising even themselves with their creativity and skill. There’s truly nothing like this extraordinary tradition! Every year, the production is a one-of-a-kind creation, entirely crafted by the student body. Over the past six weeks, our students have poured their dedication, enthusiasm, and teamwork into bringing this performance to life. What you’re about to see is a striking showcase of diverse talents, abilities, and creativity, all woven together to explore the theme, "The Silver Lining."

Red & Gold does more than entertain - it plays a key role in shaping leaders and visionaries. The energy and excitement of this production help students understand the value of innovation, initiative, creativity, friendship, and responsibility. It fosters a true sense of community.

The success of Red & Gold requires the efforts of many, and I am keenly aware of the immense dedication it takes to bring this project to life. The many hands and hearts from the entire Rosary community make this incredible tradition a reality. We are profoundly grateful to: The Red & Gold teams for their cooperative spirit All the captains for their exceptional leadership The White Team for their organizational guidance Ms. La Bonte for her unwavering inspiration and dedication Mrs. Huerta for her steadfast support and guidance Mr. Gleason, Mrs. Ritchey, and their crew for their loyal commitment The Rosary Faculty & Staff for their constant encouragement The Rosary parents for their enthusiastic support and service The Rosary Alumnae for creating and nurturing the vision of Red & Gold The friends of Rosary for their ongoing support and patronage The Administration and Staff of Servite High School for their generous hospitality On behalf of everyone at Rosary Academy, thank you for being here to support our students and celebrate this cherished tradition.

Join me in congratulating both teams for their outstanding sportsmanship, competitive spirit, and dedication. These young women, through their loyalty to Our Mother Mary and commitment to Rosary, are a tremendous source of pride for our school community, their families, and their friends.

Yours in Christ,

Shawna L. Pautsch, Ed.D. Head of School

HISTORY Red and Gold

Since 1971, Red & Gold has been one of the most anticipated events at Rosary Academy. It's hard to imagine that today's polished program had such humble beginnings. From the founding of Rosary in 1965 until 1968, students held an annual talent show. In 1968, Charlotte Ovando, a parent, approached Sister Marie Jeanne, the principal at the time, with an intriguing idea: she proposed dividing the entire student body into two teams to compete in a variety of theatrical and athletic events. However, due to the lack of facilities for the event, the idea was shelved and did not resurface until 1971, when the first "Red & Gold Meet" took place.

The initial event differed slightly from Mrs. Ovando's original proposal. The meet featured a sequence of performances by the different categories; one team would perform first, followed by the other. For example, Red Choral would sing a medley of songs, and then Gold Choral would perform their own compilation. Since the entire audience at St. Joseph Parish Hall (Placentia) acted as judges, the meets lasted over four hours.

Needless to say, the first realization of the dream was more of a nightmare, but a tradition had begun.

The format remained largely the same the following year when the meet was held at the Valencia High School auditorium (Placentia), though this time, only a few judges - experts in specific areas of theatre arts - were involved. By 1973, the production evolved from simple "theatrical Olympics" into the grand event it is today. However, the change was not without its challenges. It all began with a heated debate during a student council meeting. Junior class president Rosemary Koenig proposed that each team incorporate all categories into a single play. The council members labeled this idea "preposterous," "outlandish," and "entirely impossible." There was a fierce argument about what high school students were capable of organizing. Despite the doubts of the student council, the idea was tried - and it was a success!

Since then, Red & Gold has been held at either Plummer Auditorium or Servite High School Theatre. The ingenuity and originality that define Rosary’s Red & Gold production have remained strong since 1968, when Mrs. Ovando first suggested the concept.

55 YEARS O F RED AND GOLD

PRODUCTIONS This is the 55th annual Red & Gold Production. This highly anticipated event showcases the talents and creativity of the entire student body. Each year, a variety of elements are considered when selecting the best overall production. In addition to the performance you see on stage, points are awarded for several behind-the-scenes factors, including overall team spirit, cooperation, community service, participation, and much more. These criteria help ensure that every aspect of the event - both on and off the stage - contributes to creating a truly memorable experience for everyone involved. The combination of these elements not only highlights the students’ theatrical talents but also their dedication to teamwork and service to the school and community.
