Multico
2nd semester Juniors - Multico is continuing interviews till the end of May. You do not need to be in theater classes to apply. Multico is a super fun class for first semester seniors - there is no homework - all work is created and completed during class time. Multico students create and perform short sketches highlighting: culture, bullying, race, gender, sexuality and conflict. Multico tours over thirty elementary and middle schools each year, providing another tool for MMSD classroom teachers to use as we all work towards a more empathetic world.
Please email Holly Walker to set up a 5 min interview.
