Drama

Aberdeen Hall has a lively and productive drama department. We celebrate the talents of every one of our students in the annual Winter Concert. The drama programme teaches students to interpret and represent the dynamics of human interactions through their work in drama, and this understanding is the foundation of knowledge about drama as an art form. Through dramatic education, students increase their knowledge of and critical appreciation for live theatre, film, and television productions. Students also learn to express their personal experiences of connecting with others, tension, conflict resolution, and creating meaning in their world.  Exercises allow them to experience life-like situations, to make choices, and to take responsibility for the consequences of their actions in a safe and nurturing environment. By taking on roles, students gain a deepened awareness of themselves and others in a variety of perspectives. Fieldtrips to the theatre and the ballet, in addition to extra-curricular clubs in Shakespearian drama and Musical Performance further enrich the programme.
