YES, YOU CAN LETTER IN THEATRE!
ANSWERS TO FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
1) EARN 100 THEATRE HOURS TO RECEIVE YOUR LETTER IN THEATRE AT CASCADE! You do not have to be a Thespian to letter in theatre; though, there are some opportunities that are much more accessible through enrolling in the International Thespian Society. Thespian and lettering requirements are aligned, so if you log 100 hours of dedicated work in the theatre, then you letter (with some restrictions), AND you can also become a Thespian. Students cannot receive all hours from a single production. Please see the Thespians page for more information on how to earn hours to letter and/or become a Thespian (under the "Join Troupe #823" section). You may also be interested in visiting schooltheatre.org and Oregon's Thespian page at oregonthespians.org to learn more about the benefits of paying for a membership to International Thespian Society.
2) Students do not have to be in a theatre class, be a drama club participant, or a Thespian to audition for shows that are not part of a specific class' curriculum. Please understand, however, that this is quite a commitment and should not be taken lightly. Come to all auditions with a general idea of what major rehearsal conflicts will be, like appointments (which should be kept to a minimum) or vacations.
3) Board Members meet periodically during lunch and then meet with the club as a whole in the auditorium shop as needed. If you are interested in a position as Board Member, see one of our current Board Members or Mrs. Arndt for information.
