Drama at Sponne is a vibrant, colourful and swiftly growing department with a recognition for excellence that extends beyond the school to both county and national level. Drama is offered at all key stages and in addition to the thriving GCSE Drama and A-Level Theatre Studies courses on offer at Sponne, students have the opportunity to engage in a number of extracurricular activities and programmes.
We run Musical theatre weekly at the school which attracts a wide variety of students who simply enjoy the community drama creates and have fun developing and creating theatre.
Drama at Sponne is probably best known for our shows, and in particular our Musicals in close collaboration with the Music and Art departments. We are extremely proud of the professionalism and level these productions achieve.
Regardless of your experience or confidence, Drama at Sponne provides an environment in which you can explore, have fun and thrive.
