Play Credit
The State of Texas requires appreciation and evaluation of theatrical productions. Each six weeks in a TMHS Wildcat Theatre class, a Play Credit paper must be turned in. If students attend the TMHS Wildcat Theatre Department production, a one-page synopsis, one page critique, and proof of attendance (i.e. program, ticket stub, etc.) must be turned in by the Wednesday after the performance was attended. If students attend a live theatrical performance elsewhere during the grading period, proof of attendance (i.e. program, ticket stub, etc.), a one-page synopsis, and a two-page critique must be turned in within the next day you attended. If students cannot attend a live production, they must read a play and complete a written assignment and turn it in by the last Tuesday of the six week grading period. This assignment will be found on the Play Report Assignment Sheet given to all theatre students at the beginning of the semester.
Theatre students can purchase a discounted Season Ticket to all TMHS Wildcat Theatre productions for themselves only, for $35.00 at the time they pay their activity fee (See above). Fees and Season Tickets must be purchased by August 26th, 2019. Fees and season tickets can be written on one check payable to TMHS Wildcat Theatre ($60 Check in total for both). We encourage the student to pay by check although cash is acceptable.
