Madison Academy Theatre Department
Our theatre program for grades 6 through 12 offers comprehensive classes in both performance and technical theatre. Students develop skills in acting, singing, set design, lighting, sound, and more through class plays, hands-on production work, and participation in state festivals such as the Alabama Conference of Theatre’s Trumbauer Festival and the Alabama Educational Theatre Association’s Thespian Festival. Rooted in a faith-based mission, our program encourages students to grow creatively and spiritually, using their talents to serve others and share their faith through theatre.

This inclusive production brings together junior cast members and experienced performers, offering opportunities to shine both on stage and behind the scenes. The spring musical is a vibrant celebration of creativity, collaboration, and faith, welcoming students of all ages to participate in this exciting school tradition.
