Theater
Page Senior High School's performers are known as the Page Playmakers. Page Senior High is Troupe #7253 of the International Thespian Society. The Page Playmakers are currently under the direction of Laura White. The Page Playmakers usually follow a show schedule similar to this:
- Cabaret of Life, a variety show of short skits, songs, and dances based around a central theme.
- Two Winter Repertory Shows, for which the Playmakers find a local director. For the 2011-2012 season, the winter season has been reduced to a single show, a special holiday production of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol
- A spring Musical.

Famous quotes containing the word theater:
“The primary function of a theater is not to please itself, or even to please its audience. It is to serve talent.”
—Robert Brustein (b. 1927)
“We all know that the theater and every play that comes to Broadway have within themselves, like the human being, the seed of self-destruction and the certainty of death. The thing is to see how long the theater, the play, and the human being can last in spite of themselves.”
—James Thurber (1894–1961)
“The theater needs continual reminders that there is nothing more debasing than the work of those who do well what is not worth doing at all.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
