The Production History of Hilliard Davidson |

All About Our Program...
The breadth and depth of Davidson’s theatre program coupled with its multiple entry points and community connections have allowed a long tradition of artistic and educational excellence to continue year after year. Besides an extensive array of curricular offerings, Davidson’s after-school program includes Drama Club, Tech Crew, and Thespian Troupe #1316.
October heralds a children’s play that is cast with 9th-12th graders the minute we return to school from summer break. November has previously featured a comedy, but currently features an entirely student produced evening of one acts .The end of January sees a production exclusively for 11th and 12th graders which is performed both for the public in the evening as well as for the student body during the school day. It is followed by a production solely for 9th and 10th graders at the end of February.
This arrangement allows us to offer more challenging work for our more experienced and/or mature actors, while providing the opportunity for newcomers to tackle major roles in a separate production.
April or May welcomes the spring musical which is open to all students in our high school. Although principals and dance corps are auditioned, the chorus is open to anyone who attends all scheduled rehearsals and strives to perform to the best of his/her ability.
Additionally, our clown troupe and children’s touring theatre--The Giggle Factory—and our Improv Troupe allow students who cannot make a four to six week commitment of daily rehearsals a chance to explore performance. The Giggle Factory performs wherever and whenever the community requests—birthday parties, mall openings, school fairs, etc. We have even performed at juvenile girls’ detention center and for cancer fundraisers. Our improv troupe allows students to practice improvisation and, if they choose, perform competitively. This year we will sponsor three improv competitions that are open to teams from any high school in Central Ohio.
Our students attend both Area and State Thespian Conferences; in fact, we often host Thespian activities. We also participate in outreach projects such as participating in the Thespians’ Trick-or-Treat So Kids Can Eat campaign at Halloween and providing workshops for scout troops and drama clubs of our district’s middle schools.
Our Advanced Production and Performance students get to try their hand at playwriting and get the opportunity to perform their work for their peers. In addition, we have on many occasions given students who have written original plays an opportunity to produce staged readings of their work to receive constructive feedback. Our Directing students have also often been given the chance to direct their own one-act plays. AND for the past few years, theatre students have also hosted an open-mic styled event of original poetry reading, comedy, and acoustic music.
All-in-all, Hilliard Davidson can boast a comprehensive (and quite busy) program that does its best to serve all the interests of its students.
