Drama

​In Years 7, 8 and 9, students study drama one period every week. The drama department aim to develop language skills, build confidence and stimulate creative and imaginative thinking through practical work and discussion. We are passionate about regularly providing students the opportunity to improve upon their team work skills and explore challenging subject matter which requires students to consider social, moral and cultural aspects of the world they live in. Students explore a variety of topics and each year group studies a Shakespearean play, looking at the language, plot and character within Macbeth and Romeo & Juliet.
 
There is an opportunity for students to continue Drama both at GCSE and at A-LEVEL. The department continues to be incredibly successful in terms of results. Students explore published plays and well as devising their own pieces of live theatre. Students take influence from recognised practitioners, including Stanislavski, Berkoff, Brecht and Frantic Assembly. We take the students to see variety of live performances locally and in London’s West End, which students review as part of the courses; the productions are a great way to inspire students when it comes to devising their own work.
 
As a department, we run drama clubs, Year 10 performances and are very much involved in whole school productions. In recent years we have staged ‘Les Miserables Student Edition’, ‘We Will Rock You’, ‘High School Musical’ and ‘West Side Story’.
