Shakespeare Packet - New Cost Addendum Info

 Hey all! 

Here is a link to the FULL packet with most of the paperwork for the trip to review before signing on to the trip.  The only thing missing is the medical form to be notarized as this will be handed out after casting at the mandatory Parent Meeting on September 8th @6pm.  There IS a change from the printed one - the cost of the trip has always been $357.00, but originally we were not going to collect the $50 food money.  Legally we have found we need to do that and then will hand an envelope with that $50 for food to your student as we leave on the trip.  They WILL have to sign for the amount to ensure THEY receive the full amount.  That is the only change and it IS reflected on THIS upload of paperwork.  

Please email with further questions to the email in the packet.  Thanks and break legs in a week at auditions!  

Sidenote:  This has been a question - students not on Shakespeare Team CAN go on the trip if there are spots left on the bus/in rooms. They must also be enrolled in a theatre class, pay the fees, complete the forms, and agree to behave in a manner that represents Alta Theatre Department.  We invite those unable to do team to still come explore and celebrate the work of Shakespeare!

Stage Tech Bench Fundraiser!

We are selling some amazingly cute and well-designed benches that our 2021 technicians made at the end of the school year for their stage tech final grades. We have a light blue, cream, and stained simple park-bench, a teal shoe bench, and a stain armed-chair bench. The last picture is the arm-chair bench design in teal that has now been bought and places in my mother’s backyard. 

Lumber is pricey and we’re doing this as a fundraiser, so we would like to sell for $150 each or best offer. These benches are ready to go, fully sanded and painted, as of now and finished with an outdoor protective coating! Support Alta Theatre by purchasing one today- just me an email telling me which one you would love to have and we can set up a pick up time! 🎭❤️ ( linze.struiksma@canyonsdistrict.org )
