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.

Fools is a funny, quirky story about Leon Tolchinsky, a young teacher who travels to the small Russian village of Kulyenchikov to teach Sophia, the daughter of the village doctor. He quickly discovers that the entire village has been under a curse for 200 years that makes everyone incredibly foolish. As Leon falls in love with Sophia, he realizes that he has only 24 hours to break the curse or he will become foolish too. Along the way, he meets a collection of wonderfully strange villagers, leading to plenty of misunderstandings, ridiculous situations, and heartwarming moments.
