Portland Playhouse and the da Vinci Drama Department present Romeo and Juliet
Don’t miss the fall show, opening this week, Wednesday, November 15 with four performances in the da Vinci Auditorium and one at the Winningstad on Friday as part of the Fall Festival of Shakespeare. Tickets are now available online for the da Vinci shows, or you can pay at the door, $10 (or pay what you can).
Romeo and Juliet Volunteers Needed
Please see the jobs to be filled and sign up on this Signup Genius site. Cast and crew families usually fill these spots but anyone is welcome to help out. Volunteers are welcome to see the show for free. If you volunteer for a backstage job, you can see the show on another night. If you can help organize concessions, please let Sheli know. Filling backstage supervision and house manager positions are the priority and if we don’t have someone to do the shopping and manage concessions, it won’t happen. Four student ushers are needed for each show. Students interested in volunteering should see Sheli in the office.
Arts Fair News
The Arts Fair is just THREE WEEKS AWAY! For any and all questions related to the Arts Fair, visit the team’s planning page. We have some fantastic vendors lined up so help spread the word and let’s get some shoppers there to support local artists and the PTSA. We have posters, postcards and lawn signs in the office if you have a good location for any of these. You can also follow the event on social media.
Volunteers Needed for the Arts Fair
Please sign up on our Signup Genius site if you can volunteer for the event. The planning team has been working for months and they need a crew to run the event from setup to selling items in the cafe to some heavy lifting moving the Marley dance floor. This is a very fun community event to be a part of and it takes many hands to transform the school into a sale gallery for a day and back.
Student Artists Wanted
We strongly encourage all students to participate in the da Vinci Arts Fair on Saturday, December 2nd! All da Vinci students are invited to set up a booth and sell their artwork at the fair. Small gifts and greeting cards tend to sell really well and it's fun to make some money before the holidays! The fair is a wonderful opportunity to experience selling work in a supportive environment without having to pay a registration fee. This year it's only a one day event, so it's not as much of a time commitment as previous years. To participate, students just need to attend the da Vinci arts fair meeting in room 102 at lunch on Monday, November 13th and submit paperwork by the extended deadline of Tuesday, November 14th.
8th Grade Families - The PPS High School Lottery application window for Benson HS and Jefferson HS for this year is Nov.13 - Dec.1.
