Performing Arts

All the World’s a Stage

The Middle School theater arts program is workshop-based, with boys studying monologues, scenes, improv, and technical theater. A puppet unit invites students to write, edit, direct, and produce their own shows for younger grades. Annual performances showcase their work.

Beyond class, boys can join a fall musical with Greenwich Academy and a spring play with Sacred Heart, participating both onstage and behind the scenes. Theater builds confidence, creativity, and collaboration, helping boys step outside their comfort zones and work together to bring stories alive on stage.
