SUBJECT: Theatre Guild eNews, August 17, 2021 - Incite Joy. A New School Year with an Amazing Purpose.

August 17, 2021

Changed.  New perspective.  Hopeful.  Nervous. Grateful.  Excited.  

During our Guild-Hosted Summer Bash last week, these were some of the words our incoming freshmen and sophomores used to describe how they felt about starting the 2021 - 2022 school year.  And I couldn’t agree more!   

This school year will have its challenges, no doubt.  But none of us comes to this starting line of a school year unchanged.   We have pivoted and adapted; we have learned how to communicate virtually; we have dug deep to keep hopeful.  

The Theatre Guild Board and Membership are ready to support our Conservatory Faculty and every single one of our 275 Theatre Conservatory Students.  


Let’s Do This! 


Rhonda, Guild President 2021-2022 

We need your help!

We are working to ensure that all of the contact information we have for the theatre guild is up-to-date. If you have not - please fill out this form so that can make sure to get you information when you need it!
