MUSIC AND DRAMA

Creativity and Collaboration are values to be found in the Music and Drama Departments particularly when it is time for the annual ‘Junior’ and ‘Senior’ Productions. Budding musicians have the opportunity to audition for the Production Band or Orchestra based upon ability and the instruments needed in the published arrangement. The Senior Production is staged in the Spring Term with evening performances over three consecutive days. The Junior Production is in the Summer Term for one day, performing in the afternoon and evening. Girls may audition for major roles although there is the opportunity of working backstage or with our excellent sound and lighting facilities.

In addition there are Prep and Senior Bands hosted by invitation only by our Director of Music.

The Senior Drama Club meets on a Tuesday after school and performs various Drama evenings throughout the year. Drama at Manor House School is seen as a valuable tool for increasing self-confidence and communication skills, as well as enabling girls to enjoy the sheer thrill and professionalism of being involved in one of our major school productions or Drama evenings.
