Mission Statement
Our mission is to foster a welcoming, inclusive home where every student can explore their passion for theatre here at Classical Academy HighSchool. Through dedication, collaboration, and mutual respect, we empower storytellers of all backgrounds to grow both on and off stage; because, everyone deserves a chance to fly.
Metamorphoses 2026
Little Shop of Horrors 2023
Since 2008, the CAHS Theatre Department has brought over 30 remarkably stunning productions to life. Our stage has hosted high-energy fan favorites like Mamma Mia! the dark thrilling comedy Little Shop of Horrors, and the quirky strange yet heartwarming Addams Family. As well as timeless classics such as Hello, Dolly! and Oklahoma!. Every performance is crafted to fill our audience with the undeniable magic and joy of live theatre. We take pride in making our theatre assessable for all students regardless of whom they maybe. Our program proudly participates in the prestigious Broadway San Diego High School Musical Theatre Awards, an annual competition that gives our talented students the chance to compete in New York's Jimmy awards. Over the years, both our department and our talented student performers have earned numerous nominations. Under the guidance of seasoned professionals including Musical Director Nancy Casey, Technical Director Maisy Farmer, Choreographer Cadence Carbajal, and of course our director Spencer Farmer, our students build confidence, skill, and a lifelong passion for the arts.
