Greenshaw High School

Drama

The study of drama enables students to develop their communication skills, self-esteem and confidence whilst exploring a range of genres, historical periods and performance styles. It is a powerful learning medium which prepares students for life beyond the classroom.

The drama department offers students several performance opportunities and live theatre opportunities. In the last few years, we have been to see The Woman in Black, The Curious Incident of the Dog In the Nighttime, Things I Know To Be True and Blood Brothers. Watching live and recorded live theatre is an essential part of the GCSE and A Level course; students are required to develop critical evaluation skills and analyse performances for exam purposes.

We are very proud of the commitment our students show; this is exemplified in the very professional and moving performances in summer concerts and GCSE performance evenings.
