Talon Theatre is proud to announce our upcoming 2025–2026 season, centered around the theme: “A Shared Purpose.” This season isn’t just about the stories we bring to life — it’s about the reason behind them. Theatre, at its best, is a reflection of something greater than any one performer, designer, or production. It’s about community. It’s about collaboration. It’s about using our gifts to serve something bigger than ourselves.

We are excited to present three productions that explore this theme through powerful storytelling, unforgettable characters, and inspiring messages of hope and transformation.

Fall Musical: Hadestown: Teen Edition (October 2025)
A hauntingly beautiful retelling of the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, this musical journey to the underworld explores the power of love and art. Hadestown: Teen Edition will be fully student-designed and submitted for adjudication to The Cappies Awards and The Spirit of the MACY Awards. Auditions are open to all current freshmen through juniors. Incoming freshmen are welcome to apply for the crew for this production.

Winter Play: The Outsiders (January 2026)
Based on the iconic novel by S.E. Hinton, this production dives into the lives of young people caught between social classes and fighting to find their place in the world. A moving and relevant story of empathy, identity, and unity. This production will also be fully student-designed and submitted to The Cappies Awards. Auditions open to all students, including incoming freshmen.

Spring Musical: Anastasia (April–May 2026)
A sweeping and emotional musical that follows a young woman’s search for identity, family, and home. From the ruins of the Russian Empire to the glamour of Paris in the 1920s, Anastasia is a story of rediscovery and faith in a future built together. This production will also be submitted to The Spirit of the MACY Awards. Auditions open to all students, including incoming freshmen.

This season is about realizing we all have one uniting purpose to use our gifts for more. To serve, to change, and to see. We have three stories. Three bold worlds. One shared purpose.We invite our students, families, and the entire Santa Margarita Catholic High School community to join us in a season of shared purpose—where we shine not for ourselves, but for each other. We are excited for all that this season has in store!
