Thank you to everyone who auditioned to be a part of the cast or applied to be part of the leadership team of Once Upon a Mattress, and congratulations to the cast and leadership team, which are posted below.
CHS Theatre has two more audition/leadership opportunities ahead this year. Auditions for Jekyll & Hyde will be December 3-4, and audition information and leadership applications will be available starting at the November 6 STAGE meeting. Each show has different needs, so if you are not a part of this cast, we encourage you to audition again in the future! Theatre is always looking for enthusiastic, creative, hard-working people! We would also love to see you at set build, at costuming, at STAGE club meetings, or in the audience!
Because we are creating theatre in an educational setting, some students may wish to meet to get feedback about their work at auditions and/or callbacks. I am happy to share my observations, and I make this available to students only so that they may take ownership of their growth. I ask that you respect the time it takes to get a show started by waiting until after the first week of rehearsals has finished before reaching out to schedule a time to meet. I also encourage you to take time to process any emotions connected to seeing the cast list so that you may be open-minded when we meet. Please reach out if you are looking for additional resources on processing rejection in theatre.
Thank you again for all of your hard work this week! I'm looking forward to a great show!
Mr. Hamen
