Drama 1st Year

Drama productions at the high school level can be memorable, “incarnating” experiences both for students and for the entire school community. Since the theatrical journey is as important as the destination, we work with a sequence of rehearsal exercises designed to help students imagine characters and, ultimately, plays into being. Speech, gesture, and timing all receive special emphasis. The goal here is to offer participants an insight into why the dramatic process can be a “mini-initiation” for all involved.
