AGHS Theatre Company
AGHS Theatre Company is the theatre department at Arroyo Grande High School and was founded in 1974. Each year we put on six productions: two musicals, two plays, an evening of student directed one-acts, and our showcase of student written plays. We strive to be an inclusive and welcoming space to all who wish to be a part of our company.
