Drama
Because all the world's a stage
Our Dramatic Arts Program challenges students to venture outside of comfort zones, flex their dramatic muscles, breathe life into different characters and build confidence through collaborative exercises.
Our commitment to drama is reflected in our three annual dramatic productions, which showcase our students' talents across all our grades. Depending on their grade level, students of our Drama program can expect to move their body, find their voice, and develop skills for self-expression. They will learn the power of body language and explore dramatic forms and techniques using material from a wide range of genres, cultures and time periods.
Students will use the elements of drama to examine situations and issues that arise in their own lives and create, perform, discuss, and analyze drama. Reflecting on these experiences helps them develop an understanding of themselves, the art form, and the world around them. As they mature as dramatists, they will assume responsibility for decisions made in creative and collaborative processes. As Seniors, they will research various acting styles and conventions that could be used in performance and life.
