Welcome to Lakeland High School Theater Company
Featuring Lakeland and IA West Students
Introducing our Spring Musical
All Shook Up!
a comedy, jukebox/revue
The music of Elvis comes alive in All Shook Up. Inspired by Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, All Shook Up follows a small Midwestern town that is thrown into a frenzy with the arrival of Chad, a good-looking, motorcycle-riding roustabout, who rides from town to town with a guitar on his back, blue suede shoes on his feet, and a song in his heart. Repressed by their conservative mayor, the town begins to come alive once more under Chad’s influence. Lovers meet, woo, pursue, and more, all in one zany night that will change the town forever. All Shook Up is a rocking, heartwarming tale about following dreams, opening up to love, and the power of music.
Our Theater Family
The Lakeland High School Theater Program is proud to be a part of a growing arts program in Huron Valley Schools. Our motto is “Making the ‘AND’ possible!” We want students to be able to play sports, participate in clubs both inside and outside of school, AND use their creativity to play a part in helping us produce high quality shows for the enjoyment of our community.
Discover the Magic of Theater
Being involved in the LHS Theater program, students have the opportunity to develop skills they can apply throughout their life in all areas of their life. Participating in theater teaches cooperation and collaboration, builds confidence, develops a sense of teamwork and accountability, allows for job exploration in a variety of fields, and can create fond memories and lasting friendships that endure the test of time.
Behind the Scenes
Our extra-curricular program is geared toward educating and training students in a wide variety of fields so that they can lead and succeed in their future. Led by a team of professionals, this program provides hands-on training and mentoring both on stage and off. As a micro business, students have the opportunity to develop lots of real world skills that can help them explore a variety of careers they may want to pursue after high school both on stage and off.
Explore Theatrical Opportunities
The Lakeland High School Theater Program provides lots of opportunities throughout the year to become involved. There is a Drama Club that meets about once a month with a different focus each month and field trip opportunities to support the arts and other groups within the district. There is also an opportunity to be a part of a Fall Play, A Spring Musical, and other conferences and festivals to further develop skills and show off 🙂
The goal of the Lakeland High School Theater Program is to come alongside students and give them a place where they are accepted and safe to explore and develop their natural gifts and talents and support them in becoming the best version of themselves.
