Clue
November 20-22
Clue, based on the classic board game and the cult-favorite film, is a fast-paced murder mystery filled with wit and intrigue. It follows six eccentric guests—Colonel Mustard, Mrs. White, Mrs. Peacock, Mr. Green, Professor Plum, and Miss Scarlet—who gather at a mysterious mansion on a stormy night. Guided by the butler Wadsworth, they must navigate a web of secrets, lies, and outrageous antics to uncover the identity of a killer. This hilarious whodunit brims with suspense, sharp humor, and unexpected twists that keep audiences guessing until the very end.
The 2026 Winter One-Act Festival
January 8-10
HTC’s annual One-Act Festival is a series of short plays directed, and sometimes written, by HTC seniors. A longtime HTC tradition, the One-Acts give seniors an opportunity to experience the process of directing and putting together their own shows, and allow actors to explore their talents in non-conventional roles. This year’s festival will consist of six student-directed shows, three of which are student-written!
Grease
April 9-11
Grease, written by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey, is a high-energy musical that captures the spirit of 1950s rock ’n’ roll. It follows Danny Zuko and Sandy Dumbrowski as they navigate the ups and downs of teenage love, friendship, and identity at Rydell High. With its colorful cast of characters, iconic songs, and electrifying dance numbers, this timeless story celebrates youth, rebellion, and the joy of being young and in love.
The Harriton Theater Company is a training ground for young performers and all who support them behind the scenes. We pride ourselves on engaging the community through our love of theater.
