​NOTE: If you do not see your name on the crew list, we encourage you to join one of our crews by simply coming to rehearsal. No one is excluded from helping Warren Theatre tell beautiful stories!

Congratulations, to the cast and crew of Clue! Thank you to everyone who auditioned. This was one of the most talented groups I've seen at Warren. It was very difficult to decide. Thank you for sharing a bit of yourself with me. 

I am very excited to begin to bring this crazy and exciting show to life. We will get started on Tuesday, 8/27/19 at 3:45 p.m. at the Almond Black Box. Freshmen and Sophomores, take the activity bus over to Almond - you board at the North End of O'Plaine. practice will finish at 6:00 p.m. 

You will receive a rehearsal schedule on Tuesday. Additionally, crews will determine when you will meet. Set crew will meet on Mondays and Wednesdays from 3:30-6:00 pm (OP students will join at 3:50 when they arrive at Almond). 

I'm very excited! See you on Tuesday. 

Ms. Zimmerman

This show is going to be a blast, and I cannot wait to go on this journey with you all. Our first rehearsal is MONDAY, AUGUST 26 from 3:30-6:30 in the O'Plaine Auditorium. More details about the schedule will (eventually) be posted on the Midsummer Cast / Crew Page. Be sure to check there for updates. Folks in V2 should report to V2 first on Monday.

Looking forward to a wild ride!

​~Mr. Miller

Thank you all so much for sharing your talents with us today.

All folks called back should meet in the Auditorium at 3:30. There is not a set end time, so we appreciate your flexibility in advance. 

Thanks!

​Mr. Miller & Ms. Zimmerman

Everyone will read a scene and/or monologue from Midsummer. In addition, I have some special requests for folks in parentheses. If you are not listed for a special request, but feel you want to try, please email me at amiller@wths.net, and I will potentially add you.

• Dance - I want to see movement to music (fairies). I'll play a song such as this and will want to see some full body movements (it'll be in small groups). Also... please don't do this.
• Sing - I want to hear just a little tune. 30 seconds or so. Could be simple such as "Happy Birthday". This will be a cappella and solo.
• Guitar - I want to hear a bit of guitar play. I don't need a shredding guitar solo, but some nice acoustic picking if you can. We can borrow the guitars from band - you do not have to bring your own.

​Before you know it, the 2019-2020 school year will be upon us! We are excited for fall theatre at Warren. Save these dates:

25Friends - 

The 24 Hour Play Festival is near... very near. A few reminders:

• Participation is mandatory in order to become a Thespian
• Participation by seniors is necessary in order to earn your graduation cords
• It's an incredibly fun, exhausting, and rewarding experience.

Friday, January 25th we will all meet in the Black Box to come together as an ensemble and learn this year's theme. The writers will then write all night. We will then reconvene on the 26th (times vary depending on role) to rehearse, design, and perform.

​This link provides more specific details on the time commitments and descriptions of the roles.
