Where many schools require activity fees for students to participate in a production, Mitchell High School students can become involved free of charge! Because theatre has such a large impact on the lives of its students, we believe in supporting all students!

But there in lies funding issues. All of our after school theatre productions do not receive financial assistance through traditional school funding. We do not see tax dollars or funding from the school district to create our main stage productions. 

The money that is used to purchase:

•  performance rights ($40-80 for one performance night)

• scripts (approx. $6-12 for one actor's script)

• materials for sets ($200-600 per show)

• costumes ($50-400 per show),

• props ($30-200 per show) 

• stage make-up ($35 for one actor kit)

• publicity ($30-$50 for printed posters)

• printed playbills ($150-250 per show)

• groceries for after school rehearsals (approx. $400-$1,000 for a given mainstage production depending on cast and crew size)

And the funding for this comes from our audiences through ticket sales, concessions, donations, as well as from our sponsors.
