In “reality”, the production you see tonight is a class play - produced by the Production and Technical Theatre classes of LSHS. We rehearsed only five times after school outside of Hell Week, when a true mainstage production would have a minimum of 24 rehearsals. Instead, the students worked VERY hard in-class to bring this production to you.
So, to those of you who are physically present here tonight - thank you for being here. It doesn’t work if there isn’t an audience. For those of you who are live streaming - thank you for the support. It won’t have quite the same impact for you, but at least you can see all the hard work the students have done.
I do hope you enjoy our take on this ancient tale. This is the most student-led production of LSHS Theatre in the last five years - the students have truly taken ownership of the whole production from beginning to end. I am so proud of what they accomplished.
Thank you for joining us in Thebes.
Mr. Bucher
