“A story can sing the truth and not just tell it.� BISHOP ROBERT BARRON
ARTS The arts enhance education because they can help tell our stories visually, musically, and through beautiful images. At NDP, we offer a variety of successful arts programs to allow our students to increase their intellect by exploring instrumental music, dance, drama, choir, painting, drawing, pottery, photography and video production. In 2019-20, under the guidance of new drama director Cecilia Henrich, The NDP Players garnered seven nominations for ASU Gammage High School Musical Theatre Awards for their production of Into The Woods including best lead male Bennett Curran, best lead female Olivia LaPorte, best supporting male Jacob Fevurly, best supporting female Kendall Luther, best vocalist Ruby Purcell, best dance ensemble, and best lighting team. The NDP players also produced a new play called Not Your Average Zombie Apocalypse by Richard Gremel, who attended the show and spoke about playwriting to our student actors and audience members.
