We are so excited to be putting on a production of “The Story of Snow White”, a retelling of Snow White. ORLA Drama Club Student Leader, Ian McClatchey, has worked tirelessly over the past 6 months, collaborating with students and mentors to write this play and bring it to completion! It is now ready for all of those who join ORLA Drama Club this year to jump into and start working on right away. We are looking forward to welcoming back returning drama club students and inviting new members to join!

It is a big undertaking to put together a full length production in a little over half a semester, as those of you who have already been involved in previous years have experienced! Learning from past years, we are more aware of what kind of commitment is needed and want to clearly communicate that ahead of time, so all those who want to be a part of this production realize what is required. Parent/Student agreement to the following commitments is a requirement to join Drama Club and be given a role in the play. Drama Club Commitments:

● $25 Fee for signing up for the club through the PTA. ( Provides snacks for students during Drama Club.)

● Weekly practices on Wednesdays 2-4pm September 24th - January 28th

● Extended practices in February all Wednesdays 2-5pm.

● Dress Rehearsals in March all Wednesdays 2-6pm leading up to Performance

● Performances on March 26th and 27th students need to be at ORLA 4:30-9pm.

● Provide costume pieces for your student. (We will supply what we have available in our costume closet)

● Parent/Student involvement in fundraising for other Drama Club expenses (Sets, Costumes, Food for Rehearsals)

● Agreement to photo/video recordings of students for the purposes of giving additional practice resources and recording of the production to Drama Club families.

If any of the above requirements is a hardship for your family/student please reach out to ORLA Drama Club Parent Leader, Cheree’ McClatchey @ (360) 459-7513. If possible there will be exceptions made on an individual basis, but we need to know in advance as it may affect how we cast the roles. We want all students who have an interest to be able to join, but we need to make sure that we have sufficient time to practice and rehearse with all the cast members.
