This is interesting. Can the COTP alter a theme after it has been voted on and moved on from? The vote ended, and no provision says the COTP has that power. So it seems to not be possible.

But there may be a way around this, a Bureaucratic Order. It may be possible for me to pass an order to alter the theme. Buuut, this comes with it's own problem. All Bureaucratic Orders go to a COA vote during the following meeting. The COA has no authority over roleplays, thus could not vote to approve the order.

Since the COA can't vote on it, would the order be deemed "unconstitutional" and thrown out? Or would it remain but not have any vote?

If it's thrown out, Bureaucratic Orders have a precedent that they cannot alter roleplays. If it's not thrown out, then it sets a precedent that they have authority over roleplays.

However, perhaps there's a way around all of this. A "guideline" could be mentioned that simply suggests what channels can be used for what, but can't be enforced.
