Drama
Drama shines as a standout strength at our school, a source of immense pride due to the exceptional performance skills our pupils exhibit. Beyond the pure enjoyment they derive, drama provides a powerful avenue for each child to nurture essential life skills. Confidence, self-awareness, social & emotional development, communication prowess and creative expression all flourish through drama. Our diverse drama program embraces various dramatic forms from different cultures, reflecting the tapestry of our world. Productions Our commitment to drama culminates in annual productions that engage every student. Early Years showcase their talents over the Christmas period; Prep 1 and 2 present captivating Christmas plays. The Lent term sees vibrant productions – the Middle School Show by Prep 3, 4 and 5, and a short play by Prep 7 and 8. The Summer term showcases musical brilliance with productions like 'Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat' and 'Matilda Jr.' Speech and Drama Lessons Many students actively participate in Speech and Drama lessons, shining on our Speech and Drama evenings. Achievements often include Distinction and Honours in Poetry Vanguard Examinations. Our commitment bears fruit as numerous pupils earn Drama Scholarships to Senior Schools, a testament to their dedication nurtured at Hatherop. Beyond the Stage Our dedication to drama transcends performances. Several former pupils, inspired by our nurturing environment, have embraced drama at elevated levels, even pursuing careers in theatre. Drama is not merely an art; it's a journey of self-discovery, personal growth and expressive power. We invite you to explore the enriching world of drama at Hatherop Castle.
