Some further information about the Drama Club this Spring:

1. The Drama Club will be hosting 4 theatre workshops this Spring. Thanks to WEEFC, we are inviting four theatre professionals to our school to do workshops with our students about their crafts. These workshops are open to any student at the MS, though space will be limited.
These workshops are:
Stage Combat, Monday, March 12, from 2:45 to 5:15
Vocal Technique for the Young Actor, Tuesday, March 20, from 2:45 to 5:15
Auditioning, Monday, April 2, from 2:45 to 5:15
Make-Up Design, Monday, April 9, from 2:45 to 5:15

2. All students participating in any of the workshops will be invited and encouraged to help host the MS Drama Festival, at WMS, Saturday, April 28th, all day. It will take a whole village of MS Drama Club members to help host the drama festival here. Six middle schools will be presenting their one-act plays that day, and all schools will be participating in festivities that include an awards ceremony and a talent show.





With Wendy's Tale, Wendy is brilliant, but she doesn't test well. From her toddlerhood to her high school years, we see how Wendy gets bored with tests and lets her imagination win out over knowledge. Inside this fun, slightly absurd window into the mind of a "bad test taker," test answers turn into characters, vocabulary words duke it out, and no guidance counselors are spared.
