Waseca Drama Department
What is the Waseca Drama Department?
Waseca Drama Department is a new booster program whose mission is to provide encouragement, mentorship, volunteerism, along with marketing and financial support to continue the theater program at Waseca Junior/Senior High School and the City of Waseca as a whole. This 501(c)3 will act as a fundraising entity for the Waseca High School theater program (think Band Boosters for the Marching Jays)!

Why start a non-profit for the theater program?
Theater is expensive. Between licensing, set design & building, costuming, props, and salaries, it all adds up! The Waseca Public School district is generously providing funding to assist with a musical every other year, however, we believe that there is interest and hunger for the students to produce a musical every single school year.
What do the funds do?
Additionally, we are implementing a $50 Membership Fee for all Waseca Drama Club students who plan to participate in high school theater productions, Waseca Drama Club activities, and events. This fee will contribute to the following missions and expenses that the Waseca Drama Department covers:
One cast meal for every Waseca Public Schools production
Honorariums for guest speakers and presenters at Waseca Drama Club workshops
Funding for salaries not covered by Waseca Public School District (musicians, choreographers, set builders, extraneous productions costs)
Community Events to encourage and promote theater in Waseca
Community Theater Productions in Waseca (Starting 2024)
Group Attendance to professional theater productions around Minnesota (Starting 2023-2024 School Year)
Material costs for maintaining a functional Theater Department at Waseca Public School District (costume cataloguing, prop management, set storage)
