We are so proud of everyone who applied for tech and auditioned for the fall play on the 2nd and 3rd day of school! That takes so much courage and it was so wonderful to see your all's work! The cast list will be sent out on Student Square on Wednesday - We had 71 people audition for 16 performance roles and 18 people apply for 7 technical positions. Thank you all so much for making our job so difficult!

The show will perform in Beeler Auditorium October 8th - 10th! We are so excited to see the magic this cast and crew will create, make sure to get these dates on your calendar!

If students are not in this show, PLEASE make plans to come back and audition for HELLO DOLLY! and MATILDA in October!
