All-School Play and One-Act Plays

There are three Watertown High School drama opportunities available to students each year. In the fall, WHS produces a 3-act all-school play. In January, we send an entry to the state one-act festival. In the spring, a 3-act all-school play or a musical is produced. All students are eligible to audition for these plays.

All-School Musical

The All-School Musical is presented in the spring every other year. Any student, grades 9-12, is welcome to audition.  The cast is generally large – some leads and many "extra" parts. Actors are chosen based on their singing and acting ability. Several students are also needed for technical work on backstage crews.

Ki-Yi Legend

The Ki-Yi Legend is an activity unique to WHS. Fifty years ago, Miss Florence Bruhn created this play to explain the beginning of Watertown. Each year, students act out the founding of our community in the legend. At this time, the Ki-Yi royalty, which have been chosen by the student body, are presented and the Ki-Yi Princess and Chieftain are identified.

International Thespian Society

The International Thespian Society is more than a drama club, it is an honorary organization. Each student’s membership is a recognition of achievement. Students earn the right to join the Society by participating in theatre program activities.  The Society’s purpose is to create interest in the dramatic arts. All students are welcome to take part.
