In addition to having a theatre class this year, we are offering free Drama Clubs as an after school club option.
- k-3 to start 8/13 (Mondays 3:30-4:30)
- 4-6 to start 8/10 (Fridays 3:30-4:30)
- 7-8 to start 8/8 (Wednesdays 3:30-4:30)
All Drama Clubs will meet in the cafetorium and are sponsored by Mr. Abernathy and Ms. Reynolds. Students may sign up at any meeting.
The Museum School Drama Clubs are process-oriented after-school drama organizations in which students rehearse and perform scripted material. Students in the Drama Clubs learn the basics of stagecraft, self discipline and the importance of hard work, creativity and imaginative play, listening and observation skills, and self confidence. Our students enjoy the rewards that come with working together to achieve a common goal.
