Review for Haywood Arts Repertory Theater, Waynesville, NC, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been involved with HART as an actor and occasional board member since 1987. It has been rewarding to watch HART evolve from a ragtag group of players to a very well respected community theater with its own home. Under the leadership of executive director Steve Lloyd for over 20 years, HART has gotten more successful and put on better productions every year. We have never had a season in the red! Our facility is the most heavily programmed in Western North Carolina.
The personal highlight for me is that my high school senior son is the high school intern this year, being involved in every production. He plans to study theater in college next year, and his fire was significantly kindled during his time on the HART stage. There have been many kids over the years who have gone on to theatrical careers after their involvement with HART.
