GCM Theatre Classes:

Nina Saunders & Alicia Green

Why join theatre?
We do 10-12 shows a year, so there is never a lack of opportunities to get involved!
We are a part of the International Thespian Society, which is a theatre honors society that provides you with many scholarship and
professional theatre opportunities as well as an opportunity to earn your letterman jacket in theatre.
There is something for everyone, from acting to behind the scenes technical theatre.
Theatre has real world applications in business management, construction, design, and public speaking skills.
