Palo Duro High School Theatre Arts
Director Shannon Mashburn
I've been teaching at PDHS for 14 years and I love it. I feel lucky to combine my two favorite things, teaching and theatre. I believe that every person benefits from exposure to the arts. I hope to insire a lifelong love and passion for theatre in every student. I am a director as well as an actor. I have been performing for over 30 years, and directing for 18 years. I am very active at Amarillo Little Theatre where I perform, volunteer and teach part time. I'm a graduate of the University of North Texas. I have a BAAS degree in Theatre, Behavior Analysis and Sociology. I am married and have 2 daughters, 3 dogs and a cat.
