  • TBD-Middle Stage Fest!

Middle Stage Fest is a theatre competition for 6th-8th graders from around California.  It is so much fun!  Prepare a monologue, scene, or original piece to perform.

  • TBD-School Play!

I know lots of you will want to be involved with the play!  Theatre club members are not required to do the school play.  You do not have to be a member of the theatre club to be in the play.  Cast members will be determined by audition; crew members will be determined by the application.  Audition and application dates will be announced later.

  • Theatre Club Dance! (tentative)

Theatre Club hopes to sponsor a dance this year!  Plan to set up, clean up, and boogie down!
