LHS History
Since 1918, thousands of Liberty students have experienced the transformative power of theatre in hundreds of productions. Working on-stage or off and performing in the pit orchestra, students have discovered strengths and talents; learned the power of collaboration: and developed relationships that transcend the normal high school barriers and can last a lifetime. Collaborating on a show builds relationships that transcend the normal high school barriers and often last a lifetime.
Liberty Theatre will celebrate 100 years of productions in 2018-19 school year.
