Under the direction of Francesca Sobrer since 1999, North Theatre is an integral part of the Bloomington North and Bloomington community performing arts scene. This extra-curricular theatre troupe produces two all-school productions a year, including a fully-staged musical in the spring, as well as a children's play that tours elementary schools and a few black-box performances that feature student directors. Anyone in school may audition for a production whether they take theatre classes or not.
Performance classes also offer opportunities to perform, including the annual LIVING STATUE project, the Monroe County Public Library Seuss Events Week, as well as perform for local charitable organizations upon invitation.
