The Hotchkiss Dramatic Association (HDA) opened its first production, Lyre and Lancet, on February 22, 1908, at Roberts Opera House in Lakeville with a cast of a dozen boys. Sets were constructed on campus and moved by wagon to the opera house located on the site of the present-day Boathouse Restaurant. The play established the Dramatic Association as a key school organization and its annual play as a critical ingredient in Mid-Winter Weekend. Since those olden golden days, the HDA has expanded to offer numerous academic courses, three annual mainstage productions in our newly renovated Walker Auditorium, and numerous student-directed plays in our Black Box and around campus.
