There are two ways to get involved in Drama at NDP. We offer drama classes for students interested in learning acting techniques and stage management. Drama is also a club for students who wish to be involved in theater, but do not have room in their schedule for drama courses.

Drama Club is one of the largest clubs on campus and provides a way for freshmen to get involved and make new friends. Drama classes help students with their confidence in public speaking and presentations as well as acting skills.

NDP presents two drama productions per year; one non-musical and one musical. We won local acclaim for our production of Little Women in 2021, Cinderella in 2022 and Anastasia in 2023.

Auditions for the Spring 2024 musical will be held Jan. 16-18All students are encouraged to audition for a role or join the backstage crew and tech team. Contact Ms. Sequeria if you have questions.
