About Us

Our Story

We are theater families. Our kids have found a home and a community on stage and in the wings and we have put our time and talents to work to support them and the department they love so much.

Fourth Wall is a parent-led volunteer organization whose mission is to enhance the Middletown High School South Theater Arts community by providing financial support for the program. Our primary goal is to raise funds to offset the costs of department productions, provide needed equipment and celebrate the wide range of student accomplishments throughout the year.

Our Vision

The process of creating theater provides students with a hands-on, community building experience. It is impossible to reach a successful finished product without also learning the importance of teamwork, problem solving, commitment and dedication. At a time when funding for arts and cultural programming is limited, it is our goal to ensure that these critical learning experiences continue to be available to our children.
