Established in 2011,

...the Drama Department has flourished under God’s grace! From its humble beginnings as a lunchtime club preparing Chapel skits once a week, we have expanded to producing two full-length productions annually. Our mission at the Drama Department is to utilize our talents and abilities to deliver top-notch, family-friendly theater to our school and community, all while glorifying God in every performance.

ARTISTIC WORSHIP

Our fine arts department comprises artists, musicians, singers, and actors who worship the Creator through the expression of their gifts and talents. The Drama department consistently highlights the innovation and creativity of our students, staff, and families.

Rehearsals and Expectations
Rehearsals are 2-3 times a week, after school, leading up to the performance. The Drama Department follows the CCS extracurricular guidelines when it comes to attendance and practices.

What is the Drama Class? 
The Drama Class is not the same thing as the Drama Dept. The Drama Class is a High School Only Elective. It is made up of two parts with a focus on Acting Fundamentals and Technical Theatre skills. Students learn the fundamentals such as acting theory, characterization and physicality which results in gaining confidence through monologues and scenes performed in class. Technical theatre students learn costuming and make-up design, painting and construction in scenic design and technical skills such as lights and sound. Students in Technical Theatre will be creating for the selected show each semester.  Any high school student interested in Drama may join Drama Class.
