This course will suit students who are interested in using drama and performance to explore English.

This focus will also support students to develop their reading and writing skills. Texts in this course may include those such as: The Crucible, and The Glass Menagerie, as well as contemporary NZ plays.

Students who select this course do not have to be confident performers.
