Appleton North High School Theatre

🚗🧼 Ready to hear us "ROAR" and prove that "Everybody" knows a clean car is a happy car? 🧼🚗

The students of Summer Shakespeare Theatre are back, alright! 🎭

Join us Saturday, June 20, from 9:00 a.m.–2:00 p.m. at Appleton North High School (5000 N. Ballard Rd.) for a car wash fundraiser supporting our talented cast and crew as they prepare the pilot production of the high school edition of the hit Broadway musical & JULIET.

These incredible students have dedicated their summer to rehearsals, performances, and now fundraising—and they deserve a little applause (and maybe a few dirty cars to wash)!

“Baby, one more time…” but make it Shakespeare.

What is this show everyone’s buzzing about?
& Juliet is a hilarious, heart-filled Broadway musical that reimagines the ending of Romeo & Juliet — asking the question: What if Juliet didn’t die?

Instead, she chooses HER path: more life, more love, more friendship, and more chances to become the hero of her own story.

Featuring iconic pop songs by Max Martin (yes — the mastermind behind Britney Spears, Katy Perry, Backstreet Boys, P!nk, Celine Dion, and more), this show has been called:
✨ “Joyful”
✨ “Unexpectedly profound”
✨ “A pop-powered explosion of fun”

Stay tuned as we celebrate this groundbreaking musical AND our honor of piloting the first high school version!

Summer Shakespeare Theatre is proud to be one of only three high school programs in the country chosen to produce the pilot production of & Juliet: High School Edition.

In partnership with Music Theatre International, we’re honored to bring this dynamic, joy-filled musical to the Fox Valley.

“This is the story of my life…”
First rehearsals are complete, and the energy was incredible!
Music, script work, character exploration — this cast is already bringing bold, joyful intensity to Juliet’s new journey.
And as we dive in deeper, remember… “that’s the way it is.”
Follow along for rehearsal highlights and show magic.

From Broadway to the Fox Valley, today's & Juliet connection was one our students will never forget. ✨

While the & Juliet Broadway tour is in Appleton this week, our Summer Shakespeare cast and crew had the incredible opportunity to meet and learn from Kathryn Allison, Jourdan Ibe, and Noah Marlowe.

As one of only three schools in the nation selected by MTI to pilot the high school edition of & Juliet, our students are part of something historic—and today's visit made it even more meaningful.

Thank you for sharing your experiences and encouraging the next generation of theatre artists. We can't wait to bring & Juliet to the Fox Valley this summer!

"What is a legacy? It's planting seeds in a garden you never get to see." — Hamilton

Thank you, Mr. Parker, for the countless seeds you've planted over the years. Your impact can be seen in generations of students who carry their love of theatre, music, art, and storytelling into the world. Congratulations on your retirement, and thank you for putting students first every step of the way.

⚡️🎭️ THANK YOU MR. PARKER!

Legendary Theater Director, Ron Parker, has earned a well deserved retirement and leave behind a Theater program that he has turned into the best program in the state that includes an unheard of 27-consecutive CRITICS CHOICE Awards for North's One Act team! Awards aside, Mr. Parker's impact on young thespians in the Appleton Area will be his most lasting legacy! Congratulations Mr. Parker and thank you for all you have done!

⚡🎭️ Congratulations Ms. Dreyer!

Leah Dreyer has recently accepted the promotion to Theater Director after being a former Appleton North thespian and assisting Mr. Ron Parker for several years! In addition to the strong knowledge of current program , she is bringing new ideas and energy to the position she refers to as "her dream job"! Break a leg Ms. Dreyer!
