The 7th Tenet
"We
celebrate our school district's support of the whole student: his or
her ability to create, to imagine, to dream, to direct, to lead, to
collaborate and to perform; by surrendering our inhibitions and
considerations and engaging passionately in the showplace of beauty and
magic called theatre."
Spring 2007, 1776, the musical
The Windsor Jaguar Troupe, directed by Julie Raven, produces 2 shows a year at the elaborate Performing Arts Center at the high school.

The Pink Panther Strikes Again! (Alex Verdoni & Jessica Oliver)
Brief background of previous productions:
Last year The Windsor Jaguar Troupe celebrated its 12th year, a total
now of 28 productions under the direction of Miss Julie Raven in the Windsor
Unified School District.Graduate of Loyola Marymount University and California State University of Sacramento, Miss Raven
has won many awards in acting, set design, lighting, and was WHS's
Teacher of the Year in 2000. The troupe has an unique reputation for
producing productions of intense and realistic acting and spectacular
sets (inside the 3.5 million dollar theater that the community provided
for the school) both of which defy the typical perception of high
school productions: The
Lion in Winter, Wait Until Dark, You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown,
Oscar Wilde's Ideal Husband, Sabrina Fair, The Elephant Man,
Dracula--the Dark Romeo, Neil Simon's Rumors...etc

ALLIANCE WITH SHAKESPEARE ON THE GREEN
2006 ~ Franco Tevini & Martin Wade (WHS Students)
HISTORY
Founded
by Jim De Priest and Steven David Martin in 2004, Shakespeare on the Green
was formed to produce a summer Shakespeare festival, as well as provide
outreach programs for the Windsor community and schools. During the Summer of 2005, five WHS students & graduates joined the Shakespeare troupe for Midsummer’s Night Dream & Much Ado About Nothing, doing minor roles and backstage managing. Summer of 2006, our involvement deepened; not only did we have WHS students: Eva
Brena, Franco Tevini, Derek Vejby, Zeth Wilson, Nick Monaco, Amanda
Jackson, Trisha Bustria, AJ Reilly (WHS graduate) Rebecca Alter (WHS
graduate), Martin Wade (WHS graduate)
performing , but we had numerous WHS theatre design students creating
the set (under the direction of Set Designer Anthony Bish, Sonoma
State) and working backstage. AJ Reilly was featured as “Sebastian” in
Twelfth Night. Rebecca Alter played a major supporting role as
“Bianca” in Taming of the Shrew. The always humorous Franco Tevini
played “Grumio” in Shrew. And even Miss Raven got into the act:
directing the Youth Company with pre-show antics and a one-act play,
but also played the mischievous character “Maria” in Twelfth Night (see pic below)
