 ​​​The Actor is an athlete of the heart;

To grasp the full significance of life is the actor’s duty,

to interpret it is his problem, and to express it is his dedication.     

    Marlon Brando

 

 In Drama we learn to explore the way other people think, feel and communicate, helping us understand others and ourselves on a higher level.  Drama assists with presentation, voice production, team building, networking and marketing skills helping us with business, employment and schooling.

One of the reasons Drama works so well is that there is no “correct” answer, so participants can safely explore options without the fear of being wrong.  This makes them equal in the Drama class and empowers them to have a voice  They soon come to realize that all opinions are valid even if they are not acted upon.  Thus it builds confidence and makes ‘can’t do’ into ‘can do'.

Improvisation is a key point in drama.  By introducing improvisation games, participants learn team building, communication, how to express their feelings and emotions, learn to think for themselves and build confidence and wit whilst having FUN! 

A drama class is a safe environment for students to explore issues to make sense of the world they live in.   If at the end of the day we have helped deal with a self conscious matter, bullying issue or even assisted a participant with their career, then we have reached fulfillment. There is nothing more rewarding than watching someone become stronger, more positive and emotionally healthy. 

Drama is a course that can make this happen.
