Austin High Theatre Arts Program

 

The Red Mask Dramatics Club was formed in 1926 and co-existed with the JCC. The JCC and the RMDC joined to become the Austin High School Little Theatre. Austin High did not have an official mascot, so in the fall of 1929, under the direction of James R. Burton, the theatre department named themselves The Red Dragon Players. This year, the Red Dragon Players are celebrating their 85th anniversary. The season usually includes four full-length productions (each show is performed five to eight times), plus a short play that is entered in the UIL One-Act Play Contest. Theatre Art students can take the following classes: Theatre Arts I-IV, Technical Theatre I-IV, Theatre Production I-IV, and Musical Theatre I-IV. 

The last show on the Rio Grande campus was The Dark at the Top of the Stairs in the spring of 1975, and the first show on the current campus was A Clearing in the Woods in the fall of 1975.
