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.
