Standing Ovation for Jeff Hall: 32 Years of Extraordinary Service

Jeff Hall, Jesuit High School's longtime Theatre Director and Fine Arts Department Chair, recently accepted a position as Entertainment Integration Project Manager with the Walt Disney Company. He will transition to his new role in Anaheim, California, at the end of June 2023. We are deeply grateful to Jeff for his dedicated and exceptional service to Jesuit, and for his enduring impact on thousands of students and our school community over the last three decades.

For 32 years, Jeff Hall – with co-director Elaine Kloser – has been at the helm of Jesuit High School's theatre program. Under Jeff and Elaine's creative and innovative leadership, the nationally recognized program has grown and flourished, and most recently capped off two weeks of a stellar sold-out spring musical season with an all-new staging of The Wizard of Oz.

Jeff's new role at Disney will blend skills and talents he has cultivated for nearly 40 years in the theatre profession. Jeff will be working as a Project Manager for Disney Live Entertainment's Initiatives and Integration team, based at the Disneyland Resort in California. "I am grateful for this opportunity to pull together threads from just about every job, interest, and hobby I've ever had," said Jeff. "My affinity for Disney storytelling is no secret, and this feels like such a culminating opportunity, building on work I've been able to do with artists, educators, and students throughout my entire career."
