All the World’s a Stage

The Upper School theater department invites the imagination of the entire student body. Classes and productions are designed to help students discover their potential and pursue personalized creative paths. 

Advanced and honors acting classes offer students the chance to explore evolving acting techniques, while seniors may pursue independent study to chart their own theatrical direction. Technical Theater is also available, giving students hands-on experience in set design, sound, lighting, and stage management, balancing creativity with practical application.

All students are encouraged to audition for productions or join technical crews—no prior experience required.
