STUDENTS IN UPPER School theater classes are taught a large range of recognized modern acting techniques, with the goal of formulating their own individual methodology of character development. Students also study principles of directing such as script analysis, composition and concept. Using well-known plays as source material, students have an opportunity to study, rehearse and bring to life characters from across the spectrum - from dramatic to comedic, realistic to absurd - further developing their range of performance.
