On May 13, 2024, Ashland High School proudly unveiled a plaque at the Mountain Avenue Theater in honor of Richard L. Hay, a beloved figure in the theater community. Presented by Betsy Bishop, the ceremony was attended by around 30 community members, including OSF members, actors, theater professionals, students, alumni, and school staff. The AHS community expressed deep gratitude for Mr. Hay's generous donations of time, expertise, and funding for numerous school theater productions, significantly enriching our local arts scene. Richard L. Hay, who has been a cornerstone of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival since 1950, has an impressive legacy as a theater and scenic designer. With over 245 productions and four theater designs to his name, his influence reaches far beyond Ashland. His remarkable work has earned him numerous accolades, including the Oregon Governor’s Arts Award and the Hollywood Drama-Logue Critics Award. We are incredibly thankful for Mr. Hay’s dedication and contributions to our school and the wider theater community. His generosity and passion for the arts have left an indelible mark on all of us, and this plaque serves as a lasting tribute to his outstanding legacy.

"The theatre is opening our final MainStage show with a twist! It will be in the Rose theatre! Come see “The Arkansaw Bear”opening May 17th-25th! Saddened and bewildered at her grandfather's approaching death, Tish runs to her "special tree." There, in a world of fantasy provided by her wish on a star, she meets the world's greatest dancing bear. He is old, like her grandfather, and is running away—from death. In trying to help him, she begins to understand the meaning of both life and death, which helps her to cope with her own sadness. The play blends realism and fantasy, pathos and humor. It is delightfully theatrical, with music, magic and dance. Tickets available online and at the door! Limited seating so get your tickets fast!"
