Wilcox Theater
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.
Our Next Show
The Brothers Grimm Spectaculathon
The fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm are turned on their heads in this fast-paced, rollicking ride as two narrators and several actors attempt to combine all 209 stories ranging from classics like Snow White, Cinderella, and Hansel and Gretel to more bizarre, obscure stories like The Girl Without Hands and Straw, Coal, and Bean.
