Is this the end of artistic expression?
January 16, 2013
Written by: Katie Bandurski (2014) Brrrring. The bell rings at 2:37; the day is finished, but the best part of school has yet to begin. I pack up my backpack, meet some friends, and head down to the Fine Arts wing. Promptly at 3:00, rehearsal begins. Seniors lead warmups, encouraging the cast to chant along … More Is this the end of artistic expression?

School Board Cuts
January 15, 2013
It is time. I have kept this to myself (minus the few people I told, my parents, friends, etc), but now since the school board has mentioned it publicly I can speak.

The Tech Theatre class took two weeks to build and paint the bridge used in … More Life Skills

The Year in Review
January 1, 2013
I have been mulling over what to write for the past week, this post marks our 100th post. So it seems fitting that the 100th post be a year in review. Just a little under a year ago Homestead Theatre started this blog and I’m surprised it’s lasted this long… yes there were a lot … More The Year in Review
Scottish Accent Work
December 18, 2012
45 high school students sit in a circle speaking in unison, “The dairty pairple kairtains.” They are learning a Scottish Accent for the musical Brigadoon, so “the dirty purple curtians” becomes a garbled mess of glottal stops and rolled R’s. It’s fun to listen to them learn a new way to form their words. Jill … More Scottish Accent Work
