aboutus

WATCH is a new initiative of the AHSC for the 2021-2022 school year. An extension and evolution of the AHSC’s Arts and Theatre Community Committee, WATCH aims to bring together a diverse spectrum of theatre lovers and theatre curious in a safe and supportive community. Whether you have years of theatre-going experience, or whether you
have never watched live theatre before, WATCH aims to be a fun, engaging, and educational space for anyone who wants to learn and share in the experience of viewing and discussing the performing arts. With an eye towards professional criticism, WATCH also hopes to train
student-critics by encouraging the development of analytical, critical, and review-writing skills in a low-pressure environment. Whether you simply wish to participate through patronage or actively work towards
improving your skills as a critic, there is a place for you at WATCH!

want to get involved or even if you want to learn more!
