End of Year TAA Parent Meeting!
Join us Thursday, May 29, 2025 @ 6:30pm in Zellner Gallery to talk WHS Theater 2025-2026! Come vote on new board members and ask any questions WHS theater-related.
Then join us at Cactus Rose after the meeting to eat, drink, and celebrate the amazing year we’ve had!
Have you heard of The Golden Encore Project? The Golden Encore Project is a collaboration between Wilton High School Theater & The Wilton Garden Club.
Our musical, Big Fish, is a musical that celebrates imagination, legacy, and the stories we leave behind. In a meaningful extension of these themes, we’re proud to launch The Golden Encore - a community project in partnership with the Wilton Garden Club’s Golden Miles initiative.
You have the chance to sponsor virtual daffodils in honor of someone in teh show or simply in support of the arts and the environment. Then, on October 18, 2025, parents from the Theater Arts Association (our parent booster group) and the Little Theater Club will join with members of the Wilton Garden Club to plant daffodil bulbs near the Wilton High School entrance sign on Route 7.
Each spring, these golden blooms will return as a vibrant encore - a symbol of the stories we tell, the beauty we grow together, and the lasting impact of community collaboration.
Plant a daffodil. Leave a legacy. Join us in writing the next chapter of Wilton’s story.
THEATER ARTS ASSOCIATION BOOSTER CLUB (TAA)
Wilton High School has had an amazing tradition of Theater Arts opportunities for talented WHS students and is well known for the professional level of its theatrical productions. Family and friends are treated to Broadway-quality productions that are authentically costumed and staged. In 2019, parents came together to establish WHS Theater Arts Association (TAA), a 501(c)(3) booster organization to support theater arts at Wilton High School. The purpose of the WHS TAA is to support the artistic director and theater department both financially and with volunteer hours. In addition, we view a large part of our work to be about building and growing the theater community in Wilton.
WHS TAA is not a member organization; so no dues will be collected or are required to be a participant. Our association acquires funds through patron donations. Any parent or guardian who has a student involved in any way with any WHS theater production is invited to become a part of the WHS TAA organization.
We recognize not only the talents of our students but also those of their parents! In fact we rely on the talents of parent volunteers in order to produce our shows. Please not not hesitate to reach out if you would like to volunteer.
The 2025 / 2026 TAA Board:
Michele Ferguson Nichols - President
Don Allers - Treasurer
Yasmine Lennon - Secretary
Melissa DeBernardis - Director
Alissa Helgesen - Director
Vivian Lee-Shiue - Director
Danielle Westling - Director
GET INVOLVED!
In 2023/24 with YOUR help the TAA raised $40,000 to support Wilton High School Theater.
THANK YOU!!
We achieved this amazing feat by selling program ads - both to businesses and to families, by selling concessions and bravo bags at our shows, with $7,500 of corporate sponsorship from ASML and from numerous events that we organized that YOU attended and supported us at.
Our events included 2 guest bartender events, a fantastically attended Curry and Quiz Night, A Murder Mystery Night, Project Prom, Orems’ weekend promotions and more.
The TAA will be working hard to create lots of fun opportunities this coming year for us all to get together and support this program that gives our families so much. Please join us and support us when you can and thank you for being part of the Wilton Theater Family.
