Drama Classes
Through these courses, Upper and Middle school students study various acting techniques used in the theatre and how to utilize them on the stage. Students participate in various exercises to develop skills in vocal projection, improvisation, scene building, auditioning, public speaking, and more. Likewise, students will develop an understanding of theatre history and importance of collaboration both on and off stage. Students in the Upper school will also have the opportunity to compete in both the GHSA Literary competition and One-Act Play competition.
Theater Production
Students work “behind the scenes” of stage productions of both Middle & Upper School Drama classes, as well as the annual spring musical. Theater Production is a class for students who might enjoy creating costumes, designing sets, building lighting designs, creating sound f/x, gathering/creating props, and organizing productions through stage management. We begin the course with team building. Using communication, cooperation, and critical thinking activities gives them skills to work well together. There are also extracurricular opportunities for students to take on leadership roles for the spring musical.
Spring Musical
Since the spring of 2004, Savannah Christian Preparatory School has been producing Broadway-style musical productions. From Bye Bye Birdie and Pirates of Penzance, to Beauty and the Beast and Godspell, our students have had the opportunity to perform in some of the top musicals of our time!
One of our primary goals is to provide students with opportunities to develop and showcase their God-given talents. Students will experience the full range of a professional quality theatre production. From auditions to casting to rehearsals and performances – they’ll make memories that will last a lifetime!
