FIELD TRIPS

 

There will be several opportunities for Theatre Arts students to attend live theatre performances this school year. Theatre Arts I students are required to attend and critique a minimum of one live performance per semester. They may certainly attend a performance of A Midsummer Nights Dream (see Theatre Arts Events 2008-2009) but here some other planned events – some still tentative.

Because these are school sponsored outings, only students enrolled in a theatre arts class may attend. Siblings and other family members, if accompanied by a parent (driver) who will be attending may be permitted to join us as well, subject to space availability.
