KCAA Theatre Company produces two-three mainstage high school productions annually as well as smaller middle school class productions. The program focuses on training students for careers in theatre arts. Many students in the theatre program are also involved in other Performing Arts at KCAA, including Stagecraft, Choir, and Dance. Students create Visual Arts and Graphic Design displays for the KCAA Theatre Company, including set design, t-shirt design, program design, and projection backdrops. KCAA also has a CTE Pathway focused on Technical Theatre.
