After the show Saturday night, every EYT student is required to stay and help with "strike". This is the part of the show where we put everything away and clean up the building.
Each child will be assigned a specific task. When that task is done and he or she has checked out with the adult assigned to that area, he or she is done for the evening. Not only CAN your kiddo go home at that point, they SHOULD go home at that point. Strike works best when everyone does a job and goes home.
Half day kids will be assigned to clean their area of upstairs and will then be able to go. This shouldn't take much longer than a typical evening dismissal.
Full day kids will be assigned a short list of chores which, depending on access to vacuums, amount of post-show tears, and general desire to work hard could take between 30 and 90 minutes. To speed this process up, you may wish to come work side-by-side with your teen, and you might want to bring your own vacuum or supplies.
Full day kids will sign up for a specific strike job tonight.

There is no official cast activity after the Saturday night show as the focus is on leaving the theater better than we found it.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Thanks for the great content. It is nice to go through the process at a high level.
