Drama Classes:
This class introduces students to elements of Drama in a very fun and creative environment. Students learn elements of improvisational theater and through Drama exercises they learn how to work as an ensemble, how to communicate in front of an audience and how to express their own opinions. They write short stories and one act plays based on their own life experiences which are presented at the end of the program. Through these theater activities that foster creative expression, discipline, collaboration, self-awareness and personal transformation, students of diverse backgrounds and abilities channel their energies into inspiring artistic expression.
