HTT's vision includes youth's introduction to a range of drama skills including acting, technical production and direction, as well as providing an avenue for producing classic literature as theater, drama workshops, field trips and community outreach. Through joint efforts between HTT and parents, HTT will produce at least two high quality productions a year, where volunteers, cast and crew are of vital and equal importance.
