Lost to the Light
Oak Mountain students in the spring of 2022 wrote an original physical theatre adaptation of the Orpheus and Eurydice myth. Students Emily Scroggins and Aspyn Gibson composed original music. This entire production was lit solely by props and wearable LEDs and ranked Best in Show at the Trumbauer District 6 Festival.

Our March, 2022 production of Little Women was a huge success. We'd like to thank the 8th grade at OMMS for being such a spectacular audience. View our show photos in the gallery with a Shelby County login.
