Theater Program Information
Fall Semester Production
We typically stage one theatrical production per school year with auditions held in late August or early September. Rehearsals occur every Friday evening of the fall semester until the week of performances.
Ages
Home-school students 12 to 21 may audition for acting roles. Parents and students over 21 are invited to serve in backstage & technical support positions.
Auditions
We make auditions a fun and non-threatening environment. Every student who auditions is cast in the show.
Costs
Tuition is $200 per student for most productions. In addition to tuition, each student must sell a minimum of 15 show tickets.
Rehearsals
The cast rehearses from September through November on Friday evenings from 6:30 to 9:30pm.
Performances
Performance dates are usually late November or early December depending on performance venue rental openings. The last week of the production always includes at least 6 required full cast evenings: Monday through Wednesday tech/dress rehearsals followed by Thursday, Friday and Saturday night performances.
Other Opportunities
In addition to one stage production each year, Lighthouse also offers acting opportunities via the SALT Speech and Debate club. Students prepare speeches and/or acting interpretations from cuttings of literature. They present their work in competitive tournaments in the Stoa league. Visit the SALT page for more information about the SALT club.
