Student Life: Improv, Crews & Leadership

At Iowa Park High School, theatre is more than just a stage — it’s a place where students lead, create, and grow together. Our Improv Club gives students a chance to sharpen their wit, build confidence, and connect through laughter. Behind the scenes, dedicated crews bring every production to life through lighting, sound, set construction, and stage management. Through these roles, students learn teamwork, leadership, and real-world problem-solving skills that reach far beyond the spotlight.
