Dear Friends & Families,

It is my privilege to welcome you to the 2024-2025 performance season at Orange County School of the Arts (OCSA)! I am so honored to introduce this year’s amazing lineup of student performances and events.

This school year marks an exceptional milestone, as OCSA has now resided and flourished in the city of Santa Ana for 25 years! Over the past quarter of a century, the OCSA campus in Santa Ana has seen countless performances and served as the launching pad for thousands of dreams. Our campus has also provided a home away from home for students (and staff!) from Santa Ana and beyond. I cannot wait to see how our legacy within Santa Ana continues to grow and evolve.

As we open yet another exciting chapter in the history of the school, I would like to give a warm welcome to our new Chief Operations Officer, Dr. Gregory Endelman. Not only does he bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the position, but he is also a great and caring human being who is ready to do what it takes to help our school be the best it can be for our students and staff.

I am looking forward to partnering with Dr. Endelman, along with our esteemed administrators, faculty, and staff, to take OCSA into this next chapter!

At this time, I want to express my heartfelt appreciation to our 2024-2025 corporate season sponsors, Pendry Newport Beach, Farmers & Merchants Bank, Boot Barn, and Yamaha, as well as to our Board of Trustees, Foundation Board of Directors, Emeritus Board, President’s Circle, and Encore members. The continued success of OCSA’s mission would not be possible without their support, leadership, and vision.

Finally, I must acknowledge our parents, alumni, administrators, faculty and staff, members of the local community, and most importantly, our student artists. Our students are the inspiration and driving force behind what we do every single day.

I am thrilled to have you join me in celebrating another impressive performance season. Please enjoy all of the magic OCSA has to offer!

With gratitude,

We provide an unparalleled arts and academic education in a creative, challenging, and nurturing environment to a diverse group of students who are passionate about the arts, preparing them to reach their highest potential.

Established in 1987, the nationally recognized Orange County School of the Arts (OCSA) offers a dynamic school culture that enables students to flourish as artists and scholars. The school currently serves a diverse student body of approximately 2,300 students in grades 7-12 from more than 100 cities throughout Southern California.

In addition to offering a challenging college-preparatory academic program that produces high-achieving, motivated scholars, OCSA provides aspiring young artists with the opportunity to refine their skills and flourish in one of 17 arts conservatories. Each year, more than 200 concerts, recitals, staged performances, and exhibitions are presented at a variety of venues in Orange County and throughout the world, providing students with the unique experience of entertaining and inspiring thousands of audience members.

OCSA is a donation-dependent public charter school; no student is offered or denied admission based on financial capacity. The school’s rigorous academic education coupled with advanced arts training has impacted many students, molding generations of creative thinkers, leaders, artists, innovators, and entrepreneurs.

#1 BEST CHARTER HIGH SCHOOL IN CALIFORNIA Niche, 2025

A note from the director of tonight’s show

Thank you for joining us today. Now that the war in Athens has passed, we would like to take you on a journey with us ... at nighttime … through the darkness … outside of the city limits … unsupervised … unconstrained by laws … deep down into an underworld of forest graffitied tunnels … full of ‘shadows’...

Still with us?

Phew! Thank goodness!

Dare to follow four lovers and a group of lovable thespians into a darkly humorous story of painful divisions, harmonious reconciliations, fears, desires and nightmares! And ever present on our journey will be the night-dwellers. Those with the ability to remain unseen. These are our risk-taking pranksters, who shun the daylight and with tongue firmly planted in cheek, use their great skills to subvert reality and create a world of impermanent, dreamlike imagery!

A Midsummer Night’s Dream is a story filled with characters that are familiar to us all and that have been loved for centuries. All of whom, in Shakespeare’s time, fit comfortably into their world. But, by bringing their tale into a modern world and seeing them now through a modern lens we have had to meet them afresh and really consider the choices and actions they take. It has opened up a world of great debate on humor, gender, consent, ego and masculinity and has really allowed these talented artists the opportunity to take ownership of a reinvention and a reimagining of this world.

We are so thankful to you all for supporting these amazing, talented, and hardworking students.

Now, if you are sure you are ready? ... into the darkness we go ….
