Wellesley High School Dramatic Arts Company to present “Fire in the Hole”

Wellesley High School Dramatic Arts Company presents its Massachusetts Educational Theatre Guild One-Act entry, “Fire in the Hole” by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Robert Schenkkan (from “The Kentucky Cycle”). It focuses on the conflicts in a 1920’s coal-mining town.

A free preview performance will be held Friday, Feb. 27 at 7pm at Wellesley High, followed by Q&A. Due to mature content, the show is not recommended for children under 13.

2026 METG Preliminary Round is at Wellesley High School on Saturday, Feb. 28 and we take the stage at 1:30pm.  Ticket info.

Come support the 50+ students who will perform, work backstage and host the other five competing high schools!
