Parent FAQ
So your son or daughter is into theatre . . .
What does that mean for you, the parent?

Productions
How many productions are there each year?
There are two main stage productions each year—one in the fall and one in the spring. There are times in which we do special productions and will be sure and provide that information as soon as it is available.
My child is interested in theatre and in choir. Is it possible to do both, or will that cause scheduling conflicts?
Unlike many other schools, where students need to choose one or the other performance activity, Findlay High School's theatre, music, and athletic departments work closely together. Our theatre director and other directors and coaches do all they can to coordinate their rehearsal and performance schedules so that a student interested in both can, indeed, get the best of both worlds!
What Can I Expect During the Year?
What's the process for getting involved in a production?
Your child should watch for audition notices. There will be posters around the school, morning announcements, and postings on this website. There will also be an information meeting prior to auditions to provide students with audition information and packets. Otherwise, he or she may contact the theatre director.
