Theatre Council 2020-2021!

Thanks to all who applied for Theatre Council for the 2020-2021! I've said it before, but I'll say it again (and I mean it) - y'all made this a very very hard decision. 

Here is the Theatre Council list for the 2020-2021 school year:

President – Natalie Hood

Vice President – Dylan Thomas

Secretary – Lizzy Erwin

Publicity/Activities – Jenna Foulks

Historian – Aubree Wasden

Financial/Fundraising Chair – Abbie Ricord

Improv Chair – Sara Riches

Tech Rep – Sydnie Evans

Sophomore Rep – Andrew McHenry

Congrats to our new council! I ask that all members of the Alta Theatre Family support their peers in this decision.  If you did not make it onto council this time, know you are still amazing and a lot of great candidates applied.  If you would like more direct feedback on what to work on in the future, please feel free to email me over the next week.  For all new AND old council members, there will be a Google Meet meeting in the next two weeks to talk end-of-the-year logistics and trainings – time and date TBD.  I will have Natalie Hood reach out and make a group chat for the new council members.  Thank you all and I love you (appropriately)! :) 

Musical Clue #2

Here is the second clue in the four week series for discovering the musical for the 2020-2021 year...

You may speculate and guess with each other, but I will not be answering questions or giving additional information. I will also NOT be saying yes or no.

 My hint this week is in the picture itself... enjoy!

Musical Clue #1

Here is the first clue in the four week series for discovering the musical for the 2020-2021 year...

You may speculate and guess with each other, but I will not be answering questions or giving additional information. I will also NOT be saying yes or no.

 My hint is to look at specifics because the clue is hidden WITHIN the clue. Yes, I made these hard. You're welcome.

A Check-In and Some Coloring Pages

Hello, everyone! I can imagine you all are getting a little bit stir-crazy. The cabin fever is certainly getting to all of us. As council, we wanted to take the time to implement some ways to help us all cope during this difficult time. We've got some good things planned, so follow our instagram page @altatheatre to keep up with the fun.

For the time being, we thought we would leave you with some musical theatre coloring pages. Print them out and color them! I invite you to a picture of your finished project, post it to your story and tag @altatheatre. I can't wait to see what you create!

And above all, don't hesitate for a moment to reach out if you need help. We all have to be there for each other right now. I'm sending all my love to you and your families. Stay safe and stay healthy. ❤️

Region & State Final Team

Here is the final team list for our Region/State 2020 Team.  If you are not on this list, please feel free to see Miss Struiksma for feedback and next steps - you are still welcome to come travel and be with the team if you chose to do so.  Please be sure and see Struiksma and Miss Sarah during THIS WEEK for feedback on your piece - this is a REQUIREMENT if on team. Please plan to be here on Wednesday and Friday for team days.  

Let's go out there and REALLY kick it into high-gear this next two weeks!
