Overview

Mission

Hillsboro Players Booster Club is a registered tax exempt organization. Hillsboro High School is a public Metro Nashville, TN High School. The theater department [outside of faculty and use of school auditorium and facility space] does not receive any funding from the school system to host plays and concerts essential to high school performing arts programs. The parent run Booster Club is a volunteer run organization that solicits community support in addition to ticket and concession sales in order to fund school plays as opportunities for participating students.

What it reported doing in 2025

This year, our spring musical, "Hello Dolly" was one of the most expensive, yet highest attended programs in Hillsboro History. It featured one of our largest ensemble casts including a small cast of elementary students in a mentorship program. Several students in both performing and technical roles were featured and nominated for awards in our city's theater arts recognition ceremony.
