    Welcome to my home page! I am excited to have this venue to communicate to all my students and parents. We have many new productions on board for the year, and the student directors are busy selecting their plays (hint hint) for the One Act Festival in April. We are wrapping up the school year as well as getting ready for auditions for the fall musical "Newsies." Auditions begin May 13th.   The winter play is an adaptation of Shakespeare's "Measure for Measure." I will be working with my favorite composer on the soundscape. I will be taking over the Artistic Director label with my theatrical troupe, "Phoenix Theatre" which will be back as a class next year. 
    Some dates to look forward to-

    Sept. 18 - Open House with numbers from the musical.

    Fall Production - Oct. 25,26, Nov 1,2,9,10 at 7pm Oct. 27, Nov.3 at 2pm - Newsies

    Winter Production - Feb.28,29 March 6,7,13,14 at 7pm March 8 at 2pm - Measure for Measure
     
                      Tickets for both productions can be purchased either at Waucoma Bookstore in downtown Hood River or at the door. Our productions often sell out so it is advisable to purchas in advance. We have adaptive technology for the hearing impaired so please come to our shows!
     
    Spring Production - April 17,18 at 7pm Student Directed One Acts Festival
                      This show also fills up quickly so plan to arrive early.

    June 10,11,12 - Columbia Gorge Dance Academy

    Phoenix Theatre will also have numerous performances at all the elementary schools as well as festivals and market appearances.

    Please note you can earn college credit through the Dual Enrollment program offered through Columbia Gorge Community College. Dual enrollment is a terrific way to earn college credit while still at the high school. Students in Theatre III/IV (T.A. 141), or perform in the musical or winter play (speaking part only T.A. 180A) have this opportunity.  Please see me if you have questions.
