Munster High School

 MORE THAN JUST A "DRAMA CLUB" 

WHAT ARE WE UP TO?

 

 

 

After 20 months, we are so grateful to be able to present live theatre once again, and we thank you for coming out and supporting us!

 

As usual, we don't just work on one thing at a time!  We are in rehearsals for our contest plays.  Catch us the first weekend in November for the presentation of Cheaters and Fire Exit, two hard-hitting dramas with strong messages about the human psyche.  Both WWTC and MTC will be competing with these shows on December 4 at the Hobart Regional!  

 

At the same time, we have nearly three dozen students grades 6-12 who are preparing for Thespys and College/Scholarship Auditions.  Each year WWTC and MTC are very successful in having students rank in the top half of their category at State, and qualifying numerous students for the International Thespian Festival each June!  Additionally, our scholarship auditionees are successful in earning tens of thousands of dollars in scholarship money to study at various theatre programs around the country!  

 

These activities have become mainstays in the combined seven-year program that WWTC and MTC have developed!  We are proud to work with our students to help develop the next group of theatre artists.  If there is anything that the pandemic has taught us, it is that the arts have been there to comfort us during these difficult times.  For every Netflix series you binged, for every filmed Broadway musical you watched, and for every song you listened to, artists were behind their creation.  And during the past 20 months, keeping theatre alive for student has been vital to keeping their creativity going and their mental attitudes positive.

 

Thank you for your support today and in the future!  Your attendance at events is what keeps our program alive!
