Auditions for Advanced Drama

Advanced Drama is a theatre class for those students by audition/interview only. A full year of Advanced Drama meets the fine arts requirement for graduation and the CSU and UC requirements for admission. The class is aligned with the California State Standards, including the five strands listed above in the beginning class description. It is designed to build upon past theatre experiences and prepare students for college and professional work. The class will cover ensemble work, scene and play analysis, differing acting techniques, improvisational skills, character analysis and performance, audition skills, career paths and theatre history with an emphasis on theatre production and directing. Students not in this class will not be considered for roles in the school plays. Each semester will culminate in the production of a play, musical, or Student Showcase.
