THEATRE FUNDRAISER
Our beautiful theatre is in need of a facelift! See below for more information.
Our 5 year plan is broadly outlined below:
Year 1: $80,000 – fill in below the apron to create a safe and sturdy base
Year 2: $20,000 – LED cyc lights as our old ones are failing or failed
Year 3: $100,000 – Create a modular apron that can be removed for choir concerts and put in for band, or adapted for theatre
Year 4: $50,000 – Rearrange the curtains and lighting to better cover the stage
Year 5: $50,000 – Begin to switch the dimmers and above the stage to LED lighting.
Contributions:
- Find us a season sponsor! We are hoping to find a season sponsor for ALL of the Fine Arts events at Magee for this school year at a cost of $25,000. The sponsor would be on all printed materials – posters, programs, tickets - for every show this season (choir and band concerts, as well as all Mainstage and Players performances) and be mentioned in the speech at the beginning of every show. If you know any amazing companies or people who would want to help us out in this way, please put us in contact!

Mainstage is an intensive acting and production program in the senior years of Drama at Magee.
Mainstage students become members of a production company with students playing a variety of roles as actor, director, and technician. A wide range of productions usually includes comedies, dramas, musicals, and children’s touring programs. In addition, students have extensive exposure to field professionals, workshops, festivals, and conferences.
Magee Mainstage puts special emphasis on orienting students to post-secondary programs and the profession through career counselling and audition coaching. Mainstage is a two-year program, which gives credit for two courses in each year.
Prerequisite: A strong background in Drama is required. Enrollment is limited and depends on an audition and the student’s specialization. Magee Mainstage is an intensive production program for serious acting students and those who seek a challenge beyond that usually offered at the secondary level. The highest standards of work and dedication are required
Tickets for our shows can be found in the links to the left, when available.
