10. Why all the work? To offer the students of BCHS a high quality, professional experience. Students responsible for all aspects of the production from beginning to end- including strike. Parents and directors are here to guide the production. Students will take initiative. Students, this is YOUR play! By the time of production, parents will not be permitted backstage. We will have one designated adult backstage to fix anything that breaks and communicate to us via headset. To teach them the benefit of hard work and responsibility. We are going to have some late nights a few weeks prior to the show. Please plan ahead for homework, studying for tests, etc. You will be tired! To have fun! If it’s not fun, why do it?
