    as Technical Design and Drama Club Adviser

    Sergio Iriarte (Producer / Technical Director) is in his 18th year at HHS. As an employee, not as a student. He is the HHS Drama Club Advisor, Director of HHS Thespian Troupe 2813, of which he is also a member, and is the HHS Auditorium Manager. Sergio produces things, directs things, stage manages things, builds things, paints things, lights things, and straps microphones to things. A 1987 HHS Graduate, he’s spent more hours on our stages than he cares to count. Sergio considers it an honor to be able to continue the standards and traditions of our drama program, and to pass along the lessons learned from 22 years working with Mrs. Amy Foulkes, as both a student and a colleague. It’s all about the students. He lives in Akron with his lovely wife Cassandra, and their kitties Elphaba, Madame Leota, and Epcat.
