About the Hawthorne High School Theater
The Hawthorne HIgh School theater program was revitalized in 2003 with the show Our Town. Countless numbers of students have been inspired to join in the shows and learn the magic of theater. The theater program built from performing only plays once a year, then introducing musicals once a year, before landing on the format that we have today of one play in the fall and one musical in the spring.
