Drama
Telling Authentic Stories
Drama is a form of communication that can be of service in the Kingdom of God to tell powerful stories about the human condition.
Drama Statement
We provide students with opportunities that cultivate and showcase creativity and self-expression while challenging them to a deeper understanding of God’s world. Theater is an important part of the educational program that transforms lives to change our world.
At times, truthful storytelling requires the portrayal of attitudes and actions that are contrary to our understanding of God’s desire for us. Our belief is that the story challenges us to think critically and wrestle with life and human brokenness. Engaging in this challenge strengthens our ability to serve the world as God’s instruments of healing and hope.
The High School and Middle School engages students in drama productions annually. The drama program varies among the grade level in terms of the degree of student involvement and number of productions.
- High School – Traditionally have one fall play, one winter musical and one spring showcase per year.
- Middle School – Students perform one theatrical production each year.
You can purchase season tickets online.
A Season Pass gives you access for up to FOUR Lancaster Mennonite Main Stage shows each year. Choose from one middle show play, two high school plays and one musical. Buy membership now and pick your dates later!

LMH Fall Play Recap
A Year with Frog and Toad
This Winter, we welcomed more than 800 community members to the storybook pond for our High School musical, A Year with Frog and Toad — and it was a joyful celebration of friendship, humor, and heart.
Based on the beloved children’s books by Arnold Lobel, this whimsical musical follows two best friends — the cheerful Frog and the sometimes-grumpy Toad — through the seasons as they plant gardens, swim, rake leaves, sled, and learn meaningful life lessons along the way.
Congratulations to our talented cast, crew, and directors for bringing this delightful story to life on stage!
