Drama Curriculum

Drama courses focus on beginning through advanced performance technique across multiple genres and eras of theater. Students will engage daily in lessons that include voice, movement, character and scene-work fundamentals and will learn performance techniques that bring about confident auditions and quality performances.

Jonathan is that amazing favorite teacher from high school that lifted you up. Supported you. Heard you. Made you feel seen.

Mr Westerberg has created a sanctuary where the students can do it all. Learn. Laugh. Cry. Perform. Be themselves. Come together to build, not just friendships, but relationships that survive four years of high school.

Igniting passion through performance

DRAMA 1

DRAMA 2

DRAMA 3 ADVANCED

Drama students will engage in challenging scene and monologue units designed to help them perform both comedic and dramatic material across contemporary and classical genres. These units are designed to help students hone technical aspects of performance while developing a toolbelt of techniques that will help them emotionally connect to a variety of different characters and circumstances.


The curriculum consists of performance-based projects that include writing, directing, designing, and producing for live audiences. Through collaboration and risk-taking, students learn to work with a team and to plan ahead to meet real-world deadlines.


Students in the drama program will be challenged and encouraged to take risks. Those who embrace this environment will be rewarded for making bold choices. The drama program teaches life skills and encourages students to have fun while meeting standards of excellence. Each year students build on their knowledge, expanding their skills in new areas.
