Theater

The Southwell Players and International Thespians are the theatrical group at Strake Jesuit. The Southwell Players have been a Jesuit tradition for over 40 years. The Southwell players include both the boys and the girls from St. Agnes and other participating schools. They are named after the British Jesuit saint, Robert Southwell.

Strake Jesuit has been a member of International Thespians since 1998. Troupe 4970 recognizes the work and commitment of outstanding theater students. Students must complete the equivalent of 100 hours of quality work in order to be inducted into the International Thespian Society.

Register for Theater Camp

We are offering a two-day Theatre Camp to welcome our prospective company members. Both St. Agnes and Strake Jesuit will host this camp at no charge on August 3rd and 4th from 10am to 2 pm. During this event, our Thespian officers and other veteran company members offer introduction to the programs, tours of the performance spaces and scene shops, as well as workshops including Movement and Acting, Theatre Games, and Audition Preparation.

We will provide lunch such as pizza or Raising Cane's. If you have any special dietary needs, please bring your own food to support those needs. We can provide access to a small refrigerator and microwave. We would love to have you join us for this event.

If you are interested and would like to attend, please complete the information at the link below so that we can email more information for those signed up as we get closer to the camp dates. Thespian officers will be at both schools each day to meet you as you arrive. Drop off will be in the Bellaire lot near the Lowman Theater and/or Meyer Hall. Please register/complete the link below before August.
