Hadestown - Set Piece Pickup!

 If you have yet to hear, the musical for our Fall 2025 season is...... HADESTOWN!

Our Spring Show is equally exciting --> THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG! 

We are exceptionally excited about this incredible season and can't wait to get started. Well, I guess we can take on the summer with equal excitement... :) 

That said, we are need of a parent with a truck to get four large blocks from Crescent Middle School (right down the road from us) to Alta High School. If there is ANYONE who has a little time this week, we can coordinate a time and make it happen.  Please email me (Struiks) ASAP: linze.struiksma@canyonsdistrict.org 

Let's make Hadestown happen!
