If you’re between the ages 15 and 25, love being onstage, and want an opportunity to shine God’s light through your talents, then we want you! Grab a friend (or fly solo) and come try out for HiTops!
Set in 1985, three novice angels are sent to Earth disguised as teenagers to infiltrate a high school campus.
Their mission is to study peer pressure and the deep effects it can have on young people—where fashion, friends, music, dating, and popularity are everything. Through infectiously catchy musical numbers and a dynamic cast of characters, the show, while appearing lighthearted and funny on the surface, dives deeper into following God’s unique plan for each of us and is power-packed with truth for all ages.
HiTops touches on sensitive topics through a biblical lens, such as lying, drug use, sex, and bullying.
