​Spring 2025 Season


Standing out from the crowd can be daunting. This season, we’ll explore stories that teach us about the importance of embracing who we are and celebrating our own individuality and uniqueness. Along the way, we’ll meet many characters who feel great pressure to “fit in” and to be the person everyone else wants them to be. Others are determined, from the get go, to live life on their own terms and to change the views of those around them. But at their core, all of our characters long for the same thing; to be understood, accepted and loved.

Growing up in a world that’s not ready for you can feel impossible at times, but together as music makers and dreamers of dreams we will hold our heads up high and choose individuality over conformity. Friendship, community and the love shared between a parent and child will prevail above all else. In the end, the journey to self love and self acceptance will be worth it because we choose to believe…

“Out there someone’s gonna love ya warts and all.” 
- Honk Jr. 

may we all


May 22 - May 25 , 2025
Harmony, Tennessee used to be called "the town that sings", but music and joy are seldom heard on its streets these days. Singer Jenna Coates left Harmony years ago to chase fame in Nashville - only to return disillusioned and discouraged. Now Jenna will need to face the music, reconnect with the people she left behind, and make peace with her past to save herself and the small town she loves.
Relaxed Performance - Sunday, May 25th at 3:00pm
​
What is a Relaxed Performance? Relaxed performances aim to meet the needs of people with disabilities and neurodiverse people, while being suitable for families and all audiences. Sensory elements such as light and sound are reduced and the audience has the opportunity to meet the cast briefly prior to the show. Patrons may exit and enter the theatre as needed.

The Audition and the rehearsal


May 30 - June 1, 2024
​
A new theater teacher is bringing a production of A Chorus Line to the high school. Though the hopefuls range from shy to outrageous, and from diva-like to determined, everyone has a chance to step into the spotlight. A hilarious and heartbreaking look at the madness of auditioning and the actors who brave the process for that perfect part.

​A young teacher tries to pull off a production of 
Guys and Dolls, but putting a musical together is never easy, especially with a megalomaniacal stage manager, a lead who's convinced that Wicked is a much better show, and a girl who is clinically incapable of following directions (she has a doctor's note to prove it). And to make matters worse, there aren't nearly enough guys to be the Guys. A hilarious and poignant look behind the scenes of a drama club production filled with -- what else? -- lots of drama.

Beetlejuice jr. 


June 5 - 8, 2025
​
The ghost-with-the-most comes to the stage in Beetlejuice JR., the frightfully funny musical based on the beloved motion picture turned Broadway phenomenon. Lydia Deetz is a strange and unusual teenager, still grieving the loss of her mother and obsessed with the whole “being dead thing.” Lucky for Lydia, she and her father move to a new house haunted by a recently deceased couple and Beetlejuice, a delightful demon with a real zest for life. When Lydia calls on Beetlejuice to scare away anyone with a pulse, this double-crossing specter shows his true stripes, unleashing a (Nether)world of pandemonium.

This show contains mature content and is recommended for ages 13+
