It's prime day and our program has a list of things that we need to prepare for the school year if anyone is interested in helping ❤️ Mrs. Bacik offers various supplies to her students that are always available in the black box, so many things in this list are to refill that station. There are also various consumable supplies and organization needs that the theatre program in general could use.

Even though Bacik won't be back until October, we have an amazing sub who is keeping the extracurricular program running, so these supplies will absolutely be used right away!

To anyone who is able to donate, thank you for supporting this program and these wonderful kids! ❤️

The 24-25 school year will be starting before we know it, so we are starting to collect consumable items that we use in the black box and in our extracurricular program! If you are able and willing to donate any items that support our wonderful theatre kids, please check out our Amazon wish list! (Bacik will make sure everything gets delivered to the black box for use while she is gone!)

We are just a few days from the start of school and TTC needs help restocking the black box for the new school year!

From regular school supplies to extra deodorant and single use toothbrushes for when a kid is needing some quick help, we need it all. This list was created with suggestions from TTC members as well our regular needs.

If you can help us by donating an item from our list, the kids and Mrs. Bacik would GREATLY appreciate it! (Select Mrs. Bacik's name when you proceed to check out and it'll go right to her!)

Thank you Ahwatukee Foothills News for the great article!!

Take William Shakespeare and add the atmosphere of a Mad Max movie and you have a good idea of how the Desert Vista Thunder Theatre is reimagining “Romeo and Juliet”
