The drama program has been in existence for 10 years. At that time, we had an auditorium with a stage and we would perform plays there. When construction started on the new building, we took our show on the road, performing at the Mattatuck Museum. The following year, we performed in our new gym, but found that the acoustics were not good for musical performances. That’s when we decided to build our own stage, which can be assembled right in the atrium, creating an intimate theater right in the middle of the school. Through fundraising and donations, we have also been able to acquire our own microphones and lights.
