In Drama, students explore and depict real and fictional worlds through use of body language, gesture and space to make meaning as performers and audience. Âû²ÝÉçÇøy create, rehearse, perform and respond to drama. Outside of the classroom, "Strike Âû²ÝÉçÇøatre" consisting of students from Year 7-12, work together to refine their stagecraft, teamwork, performance skills and attention to detail in preparation for the seven festivals on the Southeast QLD Âû²ÝÉçÇøatre festival circuit.
