DRAMA

While we must be discerning, drama can glorify God. Ezekiel, for example, acted out the impending destruction of Jerusalem and the captivity of the Jews at God's specific direction. Jesus Himself employed a form of drama in His use of parables, using stories to teach spiritual truths. Matthew 13:34 states that He never taught without using tools.

The drama program allows your student to build skill and confidence while helping develop relationships with others. They will learn to use and understand vocal inflections and body language as forms of effective communication.

Students will learn how to use language and movement in dramatic presentations, persuasive arguments, and general public speaking through monologues as well as multi-person plays. Students will also learn memorization techniques and the importance of proper acting and body language to convey their message.

Drama can be an enjoyable and memorable part of the middle and upper school experience, as students gain experience in speaking and working together. Other interested students can work behind the scenes on stage, lighting, and sound crews.

Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.   1 Corinthians 10:31
