Sleepy Hollow High School’s flourishing musical theater program, the Sleepy Hollow Players, exhibits a positive and friendly atmosphere, while also teaching students how to demonstrate professionalism and a strong work ethic.
We work hard to perfect every aspect of theater productions, from acting, to vocals, to set design, to tech, to costumes, to music. Members of the cast learn to develop their individual acting and vocal skills, as well as learning how to be part of a strong supporting ensemble, and focus on the whole of the production. Crew members learn how to build sets, move set pieces, and operate technical equipment.
The Sleepy Hollow Players have been nominated for over 40 Metropolitan awards, including best actor, actress, vocal, ensemble, and scenic nominations in the past seven years. Last year, they were awarded the highest honor in high school musical theater among four neighboring counties; Best Overall Musical for their production of Hello, Dolly!
At Sleepy Hollow High School, collaboration between students and teachers results in an award winning theater program that brings to the stage high quality productions and leaves all who participate with valuable skills and new passions.
