Updated 4/20/2021 3:31 PM In March 2020, Broadway and local productions alike were forced to shut down in response to COVID-19 to protect audience members, crew members and performers. While theater has yet to return to District 214 in its original form, D214's theater departments have taken advantage of unconventional platforms to encourage artistic expression. "I'm really proud of District 214 and how we are working together to find ways to let our students continue on this path," D214 Fine Arts Coordinator and Prospect High School Theater Director Jeremy Morton said. "We're not being paused- we're moving forward and growing through this experience rather than because of it."
