HART Theatre Will Open 31st Season With DOUBT: A PARABLE
The Hillsboro company’s 2025–2026 season features world premieres, community collaborations, and special events.
Hillsboro Artists' Regional Theatre (HART) will launch its 31st Production Season, Where Passion Meets Artistry, with John Patrick Shanley’s Pulitzer Prize-winning drama DOUBT: A PARABLE, opening September 7, 2025. The production sets the stage for a season filled with bold storytelling, world premieres, and vibrant community partnerships.
Fresh off the most successful season in its 30-year history, HART continues to thrive in a challenging arts landscape. “While the arts have become a desert for many companies, HART is an oasis of local theatre,” said Artistic Director Harrison Butler. “Our community’s passion fuels our artistry, and together, we’re building something remarkable.”
