GEZELLIG
JUNE 10, 2025
"Gezellig" encompasses the heart of Dutch culture, as the Dutch tend to love all things gezellig. Having coffee together is gezellig. Politics is not.
This student run, annual show is a celebration of LW's drama program. Invited alums and seniors have the opportunity to perform individual or as group acts to showcase their abilities to parents, peers and guests. All proceeds go to support our theatre program.

CURTAIN CALL
JUNE, 2025
Every year we have an evening of fun and games to close our theatre season. The event is an opportunity to say good-bye to each other for the summer or "Bon Voyage" to our graduating thespians.
Some of our students move on to college theater programs, others say farewell to the stage life, at least for now...
We wish everyone a heart-felt "break-a-leg". Please remember us, stay in touch, and come say "Hi" once in a while!
2025 - 2026 SEASON

METAMORPHOSIS
Imagine a plump, munching caterpillar transforming into a delicate, fluttering and beautiful butterfly right before your very eyes! This metamorphosis is like watching a superhero origin story, and it’s an adventure that provides a wealth of benefits for high school Theatre students.
High school theater often has a significantly impact on a student's life, fostering confidence, communication skills, and a sense of community. It helps individuals learn to embrace their individuality and find comfort in their own skin. The skills learned serve them the rest of their lives... (more)
We are thrilled you are here! Lake Washington High School Theatre has played an important role in the school and in the community since 1922. Our commitment is to TEACH all that theatre education has to offer. Performing is fun, but all-around education is our goal. Our shows are a culmination of everything students have learned. Ralph Waldo Emerson said “It's not the Destination, It's the Journey”. That is Theatre in high school in a nutshell.
On this website you will find information about upcoming shows, links to purchasing tickets, our history, our mission, support opportunities, and any other theatre related events and information. If you have comments, questions, or need more information. CONTACT US..
We pride ourselves in providing an all-encompassing educational experience in drama. Students learn much about acting and the world skills that derive from that. They also get hands-on with the technical side of theater, all while having fun, making or renewing friendships, and do so in a safe and inclusive environment. View the LWHS Theatre Boosters Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Statement HERE.
Despite Covid-19, we have found ways for our students to audition, rehearse, and perform shows. Theatre has been around since the Sixth Century BC, and has gone through many, many changes and we are weathering these changes.
We consider the skills that students learn as part of participation in an educational theatre program a critical life skill. Please support us; the students and our theatre program. Stay tuned and visit here once in a while to get the latest information on what we are doing.
If you want to get actively involved and make a difference, we have an outstanding Theatre Booster organization which we hope you will join. They are very active in support of LW Theatre and they have a blast doing it. Whether you want to support your student, be a community volunteer and help out, or want to financial support us, come and join us.
