HB APA - Huntington Beach Academy for the Performing Arts The Huntington Beach Academy for the Performing Arts (HB APA) is the magnet arts program for the HBUHSD How are we important to education?

Research suggests a direct correlation between involvement in the arts and heightened mathematical, reading, critical thinking and organizational skills. Students who study the arts are also shown to have a better concept of self, tolerance, and empathy for others. APA provides artistic and technical outlets for young artists and arts enthusiasts in grades 9-12 on Huntington Beach High School's campus. We train our students to focus on both their academic and artistic education simultaneously. APA's visual-performing arts courses fulfill the admission requirements for colleges and universities including those of the University of California and the California State University systems.

Tickets are on sale for HELEN by Euripides and the show will be presented by APA Acting, Costume Design, and Technical Theatre students:

HELEN
NOV 13-15
FRI 7pm, SAT 2pm & 7pm, & SUN 2pm
APA Studio Theater (black box) 1905 Main Street, Huntington Beach, CA
Visit hbapa.org/see

HELEN was written by Euripides nearly 2,500 years ago for the City Dionysia festival in Athens. It reimagines the fate of the most infamous woman in Greek myth: what if the real Helen never went to Troy? What if vengeful gods had spirited her away to Egypt and left a phantom double in her place, provoking ten long and brutal years of war? Stranded in a far-off court ruled by a tyrant king, the real Helen barely maintains her freedom until her husband Menelaos, homeward bound from the Trojan War, shipwrecks on her shore. Now they must reunite and escape before their captor discovers Menelaos's presence and kills them both. HELEN seeks to clear the name of the woman who launched a thousand ships, and never wanted to.
