🦃 2026 TURKEY BINGO - ALL HANDS ON DECK!

ALL Theatre Students and Families are required to assist in some way with Turkey Bingo!

Save the Date - November 21st (All Day!) - 2026 Turkey Bingo is back at the OLSH AAC

Information will be posted here. Check Back Often!

***********************************************

TICKETS

All OLSH Theatre families are asked to sell five (5) Turkey Bingo tickets per family.

Please do not simply purchase all five yourself unless you and your guests will be attending and playing Bingo.

Our goal is to fill the room with people who will come, play, enjoy the night, and support the theatre program by purchasing additional games of chance and concessions.

Encourage friends, neighbors, coworkers, and family to join the fun — it’s always a great night!

If you’re having trouble selling all five tickets, please let us know early and we will try to help you.  You can also choose to donate your remaining paid-for tickets so we can share them with members of the community.

To request help or to donate your tickets, please email musical@olsh.org by Saturday, November 12th so we have time to help make arrangements.

Thank you for helping us make this year’s Turkey Bingo another full house of fun and support!

Tickets are on sale NOW at https://olshtheatre.ludus.com/

Here’s the evening plan:

  • 5:30–6:00 – Arrive through the Student Entrance (Ground Floor), get settled, and enjoy a little informal social time with other families. You do not need to attend this, but it's a nice time to chat with other parents. (Park in the faculty parking lot)

  • 6:00–7:00 – Main meeting: an overview of everything coming up in OLSH Theatre this year.

  • 7:00–7:30 – Q&A time. (Or, if you’re all set, feel free to head home 🙂).
