Congratulations to the Tosa West Trojan Players for being selected to perform at the International Thespian Festival (ITF) this June at Indiana University!

Tosa West was selected as one of the top high school programs in the country, the equivalent of a national championship in high school theatre. Its production of Dear Evan Hansen: High School Version will be performed at ITF, but you can still see them before they take the national stage.

The encore performances of Dear Evan Hansen will be at Tosa West on June 18th – 20th, as its largest fundraiser to support the students going to the festival. Cheers to the cast at Tosa West Theatre!

“I can’t, I have plans.”

The plans? Spiraling into suburban chaos with Bug 🪲

’ production of Tracy Letts’ cult classic is now showing at the Broadway Theatre Center and let’s just say things escalate quickly. Paranoia, obsession and a whole lot of tension packed into one wild night of theatre.

If you like your “plans” with a side of edge-of-your-seat drama and questioning reality a little bit, this one’s for you. 🎭

Only $20 and only three showings left. Get your tix @ theconstructivists.org 👀🎟️⌛
