Timberline Drama

Getting Close to the End!

2009-04-24T07:04:00.001-07:00

Play Critiques are due May 22 for all drama and stage crew classes! There will be no late critiques and NO EXCEPTIONS! Students have had this assignment for five months. I will not except any late work or non-completion of this assignment. That means about 40% of stage crew and drama students need to see a play and turn in a critique on it within one month.

Timberline is performing it's school musical next week and this is a great, cheep, short, fun play to see to fulfill a play critique.

Timberline Middle School Presents

April 30, May 1, 2 and 4 at 7pm in the TMS Auditorium

Adults: $6, Students: $5, Family of Six: $25
