Welcome to the 2016-2017 G-E-T High School Drama Club Site. My name is Patricia Hall and I am your new Drama Coach. I am excited to announce to you that your first Drama Club Meeting is Tuesday, Sept. 20th at 8:14 on the Theater Stage. If you have never been in a Drama Club just know that this will be something that YOU Create, YOU own and YOU enjoy. This page will evolve and by the time you are reaching your Senior year your memories of Drama Club will be Story's that will last a lifetime.

Hi Drama Club Members. I can't believe it has already been a year since I posted the entry above. We started the 2016-2917 year with the production of "Legend of Sleepy Hollow". I remember the first Drama Club Meeting where we all gathered in a circle and you introduced yourselves to me. Little did I know how much talent you possessed. What a joy it was to see all the Characters in Sleepy Hollow come to life as actors created the fun and quirky personalities of each role they were cast in. The Seniors visited the Galesville Middle School to perform scenes from the show for Ms. Lynn Halderson's 7th grade lit class. They were reading "Legend of Sleepy Hollow" and had great questions for the cast.

The show was a success. The Headless horseman road through the town and accosted Ichabod Crane on the creepy bridge as the citizens of the town searched for the missing teacher. The owls hooted, the Women in White and fellow ghosts haunted the gravesite and the phantoms unnerved Ichabod as well as the audience.

Also, the Drama Club cast members went to Old Main and performed scenes from "Legends of Sleepy Hollow, and the Readers Theater Production of "The Gift of the Magi". The cast of the "Gift of the Magi" performed for the Middle School too.

The 2017 Summer Production was "Grease" the School version. It played to sold out crowds both nights. The original cast from the 1997 production of Grease were invited back to be honored along with their Director who the show was dedicated too. (Robyn Docken). The cast should be proud of the professional level they rose to in the short amount of time they had to put on this Musical. The audiences' standing ovations and thunderous applause summed it up. Great job Drama Club. You are tremendously talented and I look forward to the 2017-2018 Drama Club Productions.

The summer ended with seven Drama Club members going to Arcadia as a 'clean-up' crew for the 'Ashley for the Arts' festival. They weren't expecting to get to play in the mud but so they did, with smiles on their faces. Great job crew.

2017-2018 DRAMA CLUB PRODUCTIONS: This year 2017-2018 will begin with a DRAMA CLUB MEETING. This will be announced shortly. Be sure and check out the Drama Club Bulletin board posted in the hallway by the south gymatorium. You can sign-up there if you want to be a part of theater productions this year. You don't have to act either. You can be a part of many other aspects of the theater. You can be a part of Crew, costumes, make-up, painting, sound effects- lighting, props etc. Please contact me (Ms. Hall) at patriciahall@getschools.k12.wi.us. if you would like to talk to me and get more information.

This year it is my hope to add two Reader Theater productions and add a series of 10 minute short-plays focused on helping students deal with various issues (such as bullying and peer pressure). We also will hopefully be performing a short-play at 'Old Main' and a possible "Dessert Theater" to raise funds for the Drama Club.

Please note: I am perusing scripts now and will be posting the fall play shortly and you will be able to sign up for auditions on the Drama Club Bulletin board and/or you can shoot me an e-mail once it is posted. Please send me your interests too....would you like to do a Drama, a romance, a comedy, a Melo-Drama, a Shakespeare play, a Farce? Give me names of productions you are interested in doing. I look forward to working with you this year.

Note: We will need help moving costume totes to the loft. I will announce the dates this will need to be done. Thanks everyone. UPDATE: Thank you members of Drama Club who helped get the costume room moved and the loft straightened up. GREAT JOB!

ANNOUNCEMENT: TRY-OUTS for the fall play WED. & Thurs. Sept. 13 & 14, 5:30 to 7:00. E-mail your interest to patriciahall@getschools.K12.wi.us or sign up on DRAMA CLUB BULLETIN BOARD. SIGN-UP for crew too.

A satellite probe, radioactive fall-out? Zombies at G-E-T! Senior Class members of the G-E-T Drama Club, along with it's members are excited to present the stage adaptation of George Romero’s iconic 'Night of the Living Dead.' Its an evening production geared toward teens and adults 10 and older. This edgy production starts the 2017-18 season, in answer to the Drama Club members desire to do something that is funny and scary and just for them. Night of the Living Dead fits the bill on all counts. It is not slasher scary or cinematic horror. It is high-camp, PG-13, scary fun." The story is familiar even to non-horror fans. Johnny and Barbara drive into the country to leave a wreath on their father’s grave, but they aren’t alone in that cemetery. And once that first Zombie attacks, there’s no stopping the relentless march of the campy yet thrilling undead. Night of the Living Dead was written by Lori Allen Ohm, based on the 1969 Black and white film by George Romero and John Russo.
