At Pinehurst, Drama is more than performance – it’s about building confidence, communication, and creativity. From their very first lessons, students learn to use their voice and body with purpose, collaborate with others, and see the world from new perspectives through storytelling.
Drama lessons start in College, and become an exciting journey of discovery. Students experience everything from physical theatre and stage combat to scripted text and devised performances, developing the skills to hold an audience and express ideas with clarity and impact.
As students progress, they explore a wide range of genres, texts, and cultures, gaining insight into the craft of performers, directors, and theatre-makers. The Cambridge pathway allows students to specialise as either performers or designers, giving them the freedom to shape their own creative direction.
Senior Drama students extend this learning through independent research and practical projects – work that reflects their own interests and passions. Many go on to tertiary study in the Arts, but the skills gained are universal: leadership, communication, teamwork, creativity, and the confidence to stand tall in any arena.
