[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How good is the upper school drama program?[/quote] It seems pretty strong to me, as a consumer! (Have watched some great productions.) It is joint with NCS, which is nice. There is a full time drama person at each school; a full time set and lighting design faculty member at St. Albans (who teaches a set design art elective); and I think there is even a costumer (not sure if full or part time). The only issue is time management for kids who are playing a sport and taking part in the drama program (and it's more than a few, particularly at STA). For a student who is not interested in athletics, there's been an intramurals and/or conditioning sports option that is not too time intensive, but for the kids playing a varsity or JV sport and then going to play practice that is a busy day. But St. Albans is small so they probably don't feel they can specialize like a really big school where the sports and drama kids don't intersect as much.[/quote]
