The Timberline Theatre Company has performed several shows over the past 24 years. They have traveled to Edinburgh, Scotland for the American High School Musical Theatre Festival, and Chicago, Illinois to perform at the National School Board Convention. The first show performed by the Theatre Company was a Neil Simon play called God's Favorite. The last show to be performed in the original theater was both versions of The Odd Couple, a play written by Neil Simon, and then rewritten for a female cast in the 1980s. Over the years, shows like Lil' Abner, Grease, Guys and Dolls, Little Shop of Horrors, West Side Story, Fiddler on the Roof, The Civil War, Big River, Les Misérables, and Godspell have been presented on the stage. The theater will be torn down during the 2007-2008 school year, and is scheduled for completion in October 2008.
