Prepare to awe and be awed today
Theatre auditions – September 22 & 23
The new school year is underway and there’s always a lot of Drama, but at Armijo, it’s all good.
Our fall play, Robin Hood and His Merry Men, will be preceded by workshop on September 16 in T-2. This workshop will run from 3 – 3:30 pm. There, students will find out all the information needed to know about auditioning for the play, according to Theatre Club publicist Olivia Mauk. A PDF of the script is posted on Google Classroom. **It is important to know about the play you are auditioning for, so if you don’t know it yet, go and research it a bit.**
The auditions themselves will take place on Wednesday and Thursday, September 22 and 23, from 3:30 – 5:30 pm.
Whether or not students are interested in participating in the play, there is still an opportunity to wrap up the month with a Musical Movie Afternoon hosted by Theatre Club on Wednesday, September 29 in T-2. Watch the campus and emails for updates.

- Then Ms. B will give you the go ahead to perform your monologue.
- You might be asked to do it again with new direction from Ms. B.
