Drama 10-20-30  (5 credits for each level)

In Drama 10, students engage in games and work on solo and group projects leading to the creation and in-class presentation of an original dramatic story.  Along the way, they are introduced to foundational skills in movement, speech, basic set and costume design, theatre history, and planned improvisation. 

In Drama 20, students build on Drama 10 skills and specifically focus on developing acting skills and playwirighting (writing scripts). 

In Drama 30, students apply skills from previous levels,  focusing on more advanced acting technique, directing published plays and studying world theatre traditions.
