Scene from middle school play

Fully present, truly seen.

It’s the experience of being inspired by the people around you—their wit, their generosity, their ingenuity.

Being brand new to theater, I have not scratched the surface of what it has to offer. But, as a new actor I immediately appreciate the consistency of the work-to-result ratio while learning the scenes. The cumulative process of learning this play and the creative and open-minded rehearsals made it an enjoyable experience. I felt like I was able to stylize my characters and experiment with the intentions of words given. Overall, the fact that you get exactly what you put into theater and how it never cheats out on you, is what I admire most about it. Ari, ninth grade

Drama Curriculum

Foote's K–9 drama program utilizes our blackbox theater to develop creativity and collaboration skills by giving students opportunities to improvise and act on stage, write plays, and to run the lights, work the soundboard and other technical skills. 

Music Curriculum

In music classes, children experience the pleasure of singing, playing instruments, and dancing by participating in active music-making experiences.
