West Catholic Theatre Program

SUPPORT THE THEATRE

Each year, West Catholic produces three theatre performances: a fall play, a winter Shakespeare production (in partnership with Catholic Central) and a spring musical. It costs over $18,000 to put on our musical alone. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to be used to fund the purchase of costumes, props, set materials and any other needs of the theatre program. Your gift in support of WC Theatre provides students an opportunity to express themselves, build confidence and learn how teamwork can lead to success.

Donations can be mailed to West Catholic, Attn: Theatre Program, or made online using the Donate Now button.

2026-2027 Theatre Season

Save Hamlet

Show Dates: October 21 – 24, 2026

A parody of Hamlet where a lot of the main characters turn out to be women in disguise. They band together “to stop the whole thing from turning into a tragedy.” With the women in charge, it’s Shakespeare’s famous play, but funnier and less murder-y.

Guys & Dolls

Show Dates: March 3-6, 2027

Gambler, Nathan Detroit, tries to find the cash to set up the biggest craps game in town while the authorities breathe down his neck; meanwhile, his girlfriend and nightclub performer, Adelaide, laments that they’ve been engaged for fourteen years. Nathan turns to fellow gambler, Sky Masterson, for the dough, and Sky ends up chasing the straight-laced missionary, Sarah Brown, as a result. Guys and Dolls takes us from the heart of Times Square to the cafes of Havana, Cuba, and even into the sewers of New York City, but eventually everyone ends up right where they belong.
