Royal Theatre Society -
Parent Booster Club
Welcome to new Theatre parents and
Welcome Back to veteran Theatre parents!
If your child is
in a theatre class, participates in a theatre production, or is a member
of The Theatre program at the Fine Arts Academy, we would love to have
you as a member of the Royale Theatre Society (RTS), McCallum’s Theatre
parents’ booster club. How can you support the Royale Theatre Society?
There are several ways:
1) Attend
RTS meetings generally held on the second Monday of the month at 6:30 pm. Meetings will usually last an hour. Booster club meetings are a
great way to keep informed about what is happening in the Theatre and
about upcoming productions, as well as becoming aware of volunteer needs
and opportunities. Please join us.
2) Join the
BOOSTER CLUB's yahoo group by emailing
mactheatre@yahoogroups.com to keep informed on meeting times,
minutes, notices, and volunteer needs and opportunities.
3) Volunteer
your time and talents. There are many options for volunteering, from
selling concessions one night of a production to offering to sell
tickets at each production. Whether you can share a lot or a little of
your time, there is a way for you to support your student’s theatre
experience. We need your help and it’s a great way to get to know other
McCallum parents. Your student will appreciate your support.
4) Make a
financial donation. Take the opportunity to make a financial donation to
support the productions of the Theatre department. Production expenses
are currently covered by about $3000 allotted by AISD and by ticket
sales and ads. This, however, only provides for a “bare-bones” budget.
Financial donations (money or in-kind services) have helped McCallum’s
Theatre department put on the quality shows it has over the years. These
funds help provide needed technical equipment, scenery, costumes, props,
special consultants/teachers, etc. Any donation is appreciated.
M. Scott Tatum
return this year as Technical Director of the program, and we are more
than proud of the work they have done with our students. Joining him as
the new Director will be Ricky Ramón. Ricky and Scott are excited
and full of ideas, both for the classroom and for the upcoming theatre
season.
Any questions?
Please feel free to email or call any RTS officer or chair. We look
forward to getting to know you and to working together to make the
McCallum Theatre program the best it can be. |
