Don't miss the wonderment and joy of Charles Dickens' classic tale of opening your heart to others. On Christmas Eve, the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge is visited by the ghost of his former partner, Jacob Marley, who warns him of his cruel fate and arranges for three spirits to visit him. The Ghost of Christmas Past shows Scrooge his lonely youth and lost love, the Ghost of Christmas Present reveals the struggles of his employee Bob Cratchit and his family, and the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come shows Scrooge the desolate consequences of his unrepentant ways, culminating in his own death and the indifference of others. Waking on Christmas morning, Scrooge is transformed into a generous and compassionate man, spreading goodwill and kindness to everyone he meets. This lively adaptation by THEATREWORKS legend, Murray Ross including adjustments made for the 2018 THEATREWORKS performance by then Artistic Director, Caitlin Lowans, features traditional English carols sung by the cast as well as live music and ghostly puppets. A holiday treat for the entire family! 

Cheyenne Mtn. HS Drama has a long history of excellent Theatre Education & Productions. Students may take class in: Drama, Advanced Acting (entry through audition only), Theatrical Makeup, Improvisation, and Technical Theatre (Beginning level - Foundations of Production Design & Performance, Tech Theatre 1 & 2, Advanced level - Stage Production Management). Students in classes produce A NIGHT OF ONE ACTS in February for which Drama & Advanced Acting students perform and direct and Technical Theatre students design, build/create, and run crew.

All students may audition for school productions. A Fall Musical is produced every-other year in November and a Fall Play is produced on the "off" years of the musical. Often the Fall Musical is performed in the Lloyd Shaw Auditorium, which seats over 700 audience members. Fall Plays are performed in our intimate Black Box Theatre which, depending on the configuration of the set, seats between 100 - 135 audience members.  A Spring Play is performed in April in our Black Box Theatre. Drama students are encouraged to collaborate with Fine Art and Video Production students for such things as publicity (poster/program/merch design elements) and for aspects of the show that could benefit from video elements.

CMHS Drama Club hosts a Coffee House/Open Mic Night in January in the Black Box. All students are welcome to perform.  The Improvisation class performs Improv Night in the Black Box and develops the show as they see fit with short form, long-form, and sketch comedy.

Advanced Acting students perform in a Thespian Showcase in December before attending the Colorado State Thespian Convention. They write, direct, perform, and produce an end-of-the-year show, DON'T YELL FIRE IN A THEATRE! (30 plays in 60 minutes).
