THS AUDITORIUM

Join us for Spotlight, an evening of drama and comedy directed by Torrance High Theater students. 

#VIRAL

by Maria Conville

In this ensemble-driven drama featuring an all-female cast, five high school girls recount a cruel locker room bullying incident that is initially cloaked in secrecy, but ultimately goes viral online. What happens next forces the students to question their respective roles in the events that unfolded in that fateful day.  A virtual version is also available upon request.

CHUBBY BUNNY

by Jonathan Josephson

Life can be hard when you're a marshmallow, but Buddy and Piper don't know that yet. As they find each other, fall for each other, break up, reconnect all in a matter of minutes, their lives together as sentient confectionary could only be described as... bliss.

FORTRESS

by Michael Scanlon

Billy is nine when he finds out, accidentally, that he's adopted. Feeling betrayed, he retreats into a world of his own, cuts his mother and father off completely and builds up his own Fortress of Solitude, modeling his life after that of the most famous orphan ever, Superman. His only ally, friend and sometimes enemy, is Kim, who watches Billy as they both grow through high school, and who is frustrated by Billy's determination not to need anyone but himself. When Billy is forced finally to admit this need, it is a shattering moment, but with Kim's help, the pieces of his life can be rearranged, put back together to build something new and stronger, based on mutual need and friendship.
