I thought I would keep it simple this week.
- Course selection has begun for students enrolling for 2014-2015 @ CHS. I have attached a document that streamlines the understanding of the progression for TheatreCHS courses.
Questions? Email me! David.Becker@ charlottesvilleschools.org
- Tech builds are in full force from this point onward. If you are interested in assisting, please feel free to reach out to me! There are lots of areas in which your services can be found useful.
- Anyone interested in lending a hand for build days is welcome to come in and help out!
DO YOU ENJOY BACKDROP PAINTING? WE HAVE 1000 sq ft to paint!
- We have tuesday tech days every week leading up to the show date in addition to Saturday morning build sessions.

- Feel free to email the box office theaterCHSboxoffice@gmail.com if you are interested in placing an ad or reserving tickets for upcoming shows.
- Sweeney Todd Photos, DVDs and more! Courtesy of Aggie Craft:
- Nicholas Bajis Photography will photograph and Silver Streak Media will film Sweeney Todd. Details for each:
- The photo CDs are a fundraiser. The price for each CD is $20. For every CD sold, $10 will come back to Theatre CHS. The photos Nick took for Les Miserables were beautiful. There were about 300 total which included both the stage and pit. Orders can be placed via our Google form: http://tinyurl.com/
pa6guyk. - Silver Streak Media is available to record the show. Due to copyright laws, we can film for archival purposes only. This means each student can get a copy; however, no money can be made from the DVDs. Expenses for filming will be $450 plus the cost for 120 blank DVDs – about $500 total. Last year, we were fortunate in that one parent covered this expense. This year, we are asking for donations. Every dollar helps! You can pledge your donation on the following form: http://tinyurl.com/
