Drama Concentration

  • Visual & Performing Arts Academy Logo The Drama concentration is designed to develop each student’s creativity, talents, and skills to the highest possible level so they will be ready to excel in the area of theater that is their particular passion or interest. This may mean entering a university theater program, becoming a professional actor, working in the technical fields of theater, becoming a director, playwright, or starting a community theater.

    The courses in this concentration will use hands-on participatory activities that involve the talents of individual students to explore and become proficient in the technical, creative, and collaborative aspects of theater. Students will participate in complete theatrical experiences that incorporate all elements into a polished product. Lastly, students will be given various opportunities to perform for a variety of audiences including the public community, cross-disciplinary peers, outside students, and students within the drama concentration of the Clifton High School Visual and Performing Arts Academy. Possible careers related to this sequence are Actor, Director, Playwright, Set Designer, and Drama Coach/Teachers. Students will be placed with a mentor/adviser to monitor and guide their progress through the Visual and Performing Arts Academy.
