Overview

Typically Wilcox Stage Company, our theater group and Theater Productions Honors class,  produces two shows (one in the Fall and one in the Spring). Anyone is welcome to audition.

Audition Info 

For auditions, we advertise prior to on the announcements, via social media etc., and then interested students fill out an audition form and prepare a 1-2 min monologue (or if we decide to do a musical, they prepare 1-2 mins of a song). Auditions are typically during 7th period and right after school. 

Theater Courses

It is most common for students to take Theater 1 their Freshmen year, as that is the prerequisite for the Honors class, and it fulfills the fine arts requirement. They can then join Productions Honors their Sophomore or Junior year.
