In the classroom, sixth, seventh, and eighth grade students exercise their imagination, create improvisationally, and develop their unique voice. Every student will have a rotation of drama to develop their skills. Sixth grade students will grow through storytelling, seventh grade through playwriting, and eighth grade has an opportunity to join a semester-long elective in advanced acting; all along, devising new work and performing costumed classics and modern plays from around the globe.
On our FCS mainstage, we produce a musical in the fall, and the students' original plays every spring. During the entire season, the students can work behind the scenes, student direct, or stage manage. They can join our fabulous stage crew to learn to create with lights, sound, tech, and set construction. Rehearsals are held two-three days after school from 3:15-5:15 pm, giving every student a time to make new friends and celebrate their talents.
