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 7th @6pm.

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! If you would like to go on the trip, and are NOT on team, I need to know by September 2nd and receive an email from your parent affirming they are okay with your participation and willing to pay the trip fee in full.
To get started, look for a monologue that you really feel you can get behind. You can find a good list of monologues at https://www.bard.org/competition under the Shakespeare Scene Resources section or at https://www.shakespeare-monologues.org/home. I look forward to seeing you on the 23rd!
*** We have a chance for anyone to workshop their monologues with some of our upper class-men before auditions on August 22nd from 2:30-3:30pm in the PAC Green Room – just show up and we’ll give you someone to work with and some tips! :)
Hard-copies of the packet will be posted on the call-board outside of the green room in the PAC the first day of school – please go over things with your parents. It is the same information as in the link above. All who are on team get to and must perform in Night of Shakespeare on September 28th and attend/fund the trip to Cedar City for competition Sept. 29th-October 1st. Rehearsals will begin on the 25th and 26th of August from 2:30-5pm and then be most days after school at 5pm-7pm, with times beginning earlier closer to competition. We are excited to see what y’all prepare for us and are stoked to get the show on its feet! 🎭 Feel free to email me with any questions!
