Why this blog is here

Wichita High School Heights Theatre, International Thespian Troupe #923, and Stuart Graham are committed to creating theatre that is educational, entertaining, and ever increasing in quality. Preparation for next school years show's are under way. Student performers will gain skills in character research and creation as well as other theatrical skills involved with the production. Student technicians will learn about theatre carpentry (different from regular carpentry in that you don't build things to last for years, only weeks), lighting design, scene painting, make-up design and application, marketing and graphic design, and business applications for running the box office. Every show is an opportunity for students to experience the vast array of skills necessary for success not just in theatre, but in everyday life as well.
