The St. Edward's Drama Club
The St. Edward's Drama Club is an
extra-curricular group of grade 4,5 and 6 students that meet once per week
after school. The club is open to all elementary students who wish to join.
During the first half of the year, the students focus on creative drama
activities for an hour a week. These activities are improvisational and focus
on the elements of Creative Drama. The students always enjoy these activities
and are able to apply what they have learned to our spring production.
Spring Musical
After the Christmas break, our Drama Club
begins preparation for our spring musical. During auditions, each child reads
a prepared passage from the play and sings a piece of music.
All drama club members are given a part in
the play and students may also help to build sets and make the necessary
props. The musical is usually presented in late May or early June. Over the
past several years, the Drama Club has presented many successful productions
including "the Emperor's New Clothes", "Rats", The Best Little Theater in
Town", "School Daze", "The Granny Awards", and "Dig It".
