The Westminster Academy Upper School Drama Program provides an exciting array of experiences and training in multiple facets of the dramatic arts, including acting, improvisation, writing, and directing. The upper school drama curriculum begins with middle school drama and continues in high school with Drama I, Drama II, and Drama III. Students perform in venues ranging from in‐class productions and chapels to the annual school production. Students discover how dramatic storytelling reflects the beauty of God’s ultimate story, the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Students are given many opportunities to cultivate their dramatic talents for God’s glory.
