Introduction
Dear Parents, Welcome to Drama at Dulwich College Shanghai. In the Drama Department, we are passionate about giving every student the opportunity to take risks on stage and develop as skilled and versatile performers. It is therefore our aim to provide a diverse and varied programme which challenges our students to produce innovative, relevant and exciting theatre of all genres and styles.
In this booklet you will see some of the amazing work the students produced in 2015-2016, which ranged from Shakespeare to physical theatre; from musical to dance drama. This year proves to be just as exciting, with a whole school musical in the Senior School and Dulwich Shanghai hosting the Shakespeare Festival in October. We hope to see you in one of our audiences soon! Ms. Carla Graves Head of Drama
