Drama

Beginning in third grade, the drama curriculum helps students develop creative expression, concentration, poise, teamwork and self-confidence. At each grade-level, students have an opportunity to perform a short theatrical piece, often in conjunction with the music department. Each year, the fifth and eighth grades present a full musical production.

Middle School students explore playwriting and theatre history. Upper School students may participate in a fall dramatic production and/or the spring musical. Upper School drama classes include:

  • Acting
  • Directing
  • Musical theatre
  • Film, and
  • Stagecraft 

Technology is used in age-appropriate theatre and film classes. Upper School students can also participate in improvisation, playwriting, comedy, film and a myriad of other creative club activities.
