Beaverton High School, Theater hasn't added a story.
Hello, I'm Shannon Dery, Theatrical Director and Drama Teacher at Beaverton High School. I've been on stage all my life, I've played hundreds of roles, but my greatest role has been to help guide and inspire young artists. When I became the director at BHS, I inherited a long and storied tradition of theater. Our stage has seen some of the finest and most memorable high school theater in the country. Our program is student centered and offers opportunities both on stage and behind. We even offer opportunities for students to direct. We put up more high quality shows a year than just about any school in the state. Our shows have kept up the BHS tradition of excellence, but our budgets, sadly, have not.
Our after school Theater program and our Theater classes work together to create the magic that fills our stage. To do that, we need funding. Funding for raw materials - paint, wood, fasteners, wire, fabric... For years, we've recycled every scrap of wood, every old bucket of donated paint, every screw. We are down to scraps. I'm given $500.00 from the school for all my classes for the whole year, from Acting 1 to Theater 2. It's just not enough to cover all our material needs for those classes and the Theater Design class.
We need to raise $2500.00 to replenish our supplies, so we can build sets that are as good as our performances, and keep the BHS tradition of excellence alive.
