A word from our students...
Maximiliano Fernandez Escalona
"I love theare because its become my safe space. It's where I can take risks and make mistakes knowing no matter what I'll still have people in my corner. It's also where I know I can help someone else by returning the support they give me."
Paris Oliver
"I didn't know how much theatre would end up meaning to me when I signed up for a class, but as soon as I did I was hooked. From building sets to preforming on stage, there's something for everyone and so many chances to get involved. Everyone is so welcoming and the auditorium has come to feel like a second home."
Emma Johnson
"AFHS theatre has not only given me a second family, they've given me a place to express myself on stage. I've loved getting to be apart of past productions and I can't wait to see what brilliant ideas and stories we get to tell in the future! I will never forget the amazing memories the theatre department has given me! I love it!"
