Students are supposed to look professional in all Showcase events. Although comfortable shoes are a must, remind your senior that ripped jeans, sneakers, t-shirts and flip flops are NOT appropriate during Showcase performances. If your student has questions about what to wear, they should ask Ms Price or another Conservatory teacher BEFORE November 21st.

Students will be eating snacks or meals provided by the Theatre Guild during the Friday & Saturday of Showcase. Of course, your student is always welcome to bring their own food but the Guild wants to make sure that they make an effort to meet student's dietary restrictions. Email:  hospitality@btwtheatreguild.com

Let us know ahead of time if you plan to help set up the College Rep Hospitality Space and the Senior Cafeteria Balcony on November 21 at 5pm.  If you plan to volunteer let us know by signing up here.

Note that the other volunteer shifts that occur during showcase events are not open to senior parent volunteers.

Senior parents are invited to come to campus after open rehearsal on November 21st to help set up the College Rep Hospitality Space in Ms Jones’s studio (room 174). On Friday evening, parents will be needed to set up the students' lounge in the Senior Cafeteria. Let Tamara know if you plan to volunteer. That's it! You're in! Everyone is welcome! When you enter through the main doors (circle drive) you are on the same floor as the Hospitality Spaces. We will meet in the Senior Cafeteria Balcony.  

(Note that the other volunteer shifts that occur during showcase events are not open to senior parent volunteers)
