Theatre
At Orange Beach, we take immense pride in our vibrant and dynamic Theatre Program, where creativity knows no bounds, and the stage comes alive with passion, talent, and the magic of storytelling. Whether you're a seasoned actor or a novice looking to explore the world of theatre, we have something special for everyone.
Our Mission: Our mission is to nurture and inspire young minds through the performing arts, fostering creativity, self-expression, teamwork, and confidence. We believe that theatre is a powerful medium for personal growth and that it encourages empathy and understanding in our diverse community.
Our Theatre Program offers a well-rounded curriculum that encompasses various aspects of theatre, including acting, directing, stagecraft, set design, costume creation, and more. Students can gain a holistic understanding of the theatrical process and develop skills that extend beyond the stage. From classic plays to contemporary productions, our students have the chance to participate in a wide range of performances throughout the school year. Whether it's a musical, drama, comedy, or unique showcase, the spotlight is waiting for you! Our school boasts top-notch theatre facilities, including a well-equipped auditorium, a Black Box Theatre, rehearsal spaces, and modern technology to enhance the overall production quality.
Join us on this thrilling adventure as we celebrate the magic of theatre and the transformative power of the performing arts! For more information, feel free to contact the Director of Theatre, Grace Stanton, at grace.stanton@obcityschools.org.
