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 Winter Musical Recap
Little Women
Lancaster Mennonite’s High School Drama Department presented Little Women as the Winter Musical.
This production included ‘legacy’ students, students whose older siblings and other family were also heavily involved in the Drama Department, as well as seniors who have been involved in almost every production since the beginning of their tenure at Lancaster Mennonite. I am so proud of the cast and crew for the hard work they did at making this production a success, congrats to you!
Great job to all the students who had a part in making the musical a success!
