Our 2020-2021 Season
Harriton Theater is happy to be back for 3 more amazing shows this 2020-2021 season!
We are presenting Our Town in the fall, our student-directed Winter One Act Festival in January, and the spring musical, Mamma Mia!
HTC will open the season with Our Town, open from November 19th to 21st. The landmark American classic tells the story of the fictional American small town of Grover's Corners between 1901 and 1913 through the everyday lives of its citizens. Throughout, Wilder uses metatheatrical devices, setting the play in the actual theatre where it is being performed. The logistics of our fall play are still being determined. Due to COVID-19 and the evolving pandemic, we are looking at virtual or streaming options for this performance.
During January, the HTC Seniors have the opportunity to be a part of the 2021 Winter One-Acts. Each year, The One-Act Festival allows our students to take on a new role, as a director. From January 14th to 16th, audiences will be able to experience 6 short plays that all show off our students' various talents.
Working, an ensemble-based musical based on the book by Studs Terkel, will be pre-filmed in the Harriton Auditorium and live-streamed on April 16th and April 17th. The song cycle tells the story of numerous everyday American workers patched together paint the world of employment that is often overlooked in society. Come join HTC for the last show of the season!
All performances this season are subject to change. We are determined to have a full season, and we are considering all options to keep our students and staff safe over the next few months.
