EXPECTATIONS for OLATHE SOUTH THEATRE STUDENTS
Failing to meet any of the below expectations may lead to removal from the cast/crew.
- Be Prompt
“Early is on time, on time is late, and late is unacceptable.”- Eric Jerome Dickey
Students are expected to be in the room where it happens at all call times for rehearsals and performances. This includes being on time to rehearsal and to all your classes at Olathe South. - Be Prepared
“Confidence comes from being prepared.” - John Wooden
Students are expected to bring their script and a pencil to every rehearsal, and to have their lines, blocking, vocal parts, and choreography memorized by the designated due dates. - Be Respectful
“Love the art in yourself, not yourself in the art.” - Konstantin Stanislavski
Students are expected to treat others with respect, kindness and compassion. Olathe South Theatre is about being a part of a winning team. A student’s role is to help make the show better by helping others succeed. - Follow School Rules
“It’s always more difficult to recover than it is to do the right thing in the beginning.” - Tony Baxter
Students are expected to follow all school rules as found on the Olathe South High School student handbook.
Conflicts: We expect students to attend every rehearsal. Students with conflicts such as work schedules, another sport/activity, private lessons, driver's education, etc, during our rehearsal hours are choosing to give up their role in an Olathe South Theatre production. If a student has a conflict after turning in this form, they are likely to have to give up their role in the show. Please list conflicts below:
COSTS for STUDENTS in OLATHE SOUTH THEATRE PRODUCTIONS
Note: Costs should not prevent participation in Olathe South Theatre. Contact a school counselor if there is financial need.
- We ask all families to donate a minimum $50 to help defer the costs of each show (costumes, set, professional photos of the show, etc). We are not doing a formal fundraiser this year. We are simply asking for your help. Theatre is expensive. Our school budget does not cover the cost of the production. We rely on ticket sales and donations to produce our shows. Other Olathe high schools require a production fee. We would rather ask for donations than require a fee. Feel free to share the donation link with friends and family and ask them to make a donation on behalf of your student for this production. https://ks-olathe-lite.intouchreceipting.com/ostheatre
- Students are required to provide their own THEATRICAL MAKEUP KIT. These typically cost about $25 and can be purchased online or at local theatrical supply stores.
- Students are required to provide their own APPROPRIATE SHOES AS SPECIFIED BY THE CHOREOGRAPHER or COSTUMER. Not all shows require special dance shoes. Cost varies for dance shoes. This is typically for character, jazz, ballet, or tap shoes.
- Students will have the OPTION of purchasing a SHOW SHIRT.
- Students will have the OPTION of participating in the “BREAK-A-LEG” BUDDY GIFT EXCHANGE the week of the show. Students are encouraged to spend less than $10, but homemade gifts are the most meaningful.
