Theatre at Tara

 

Yarrow Corymb and Lucy Leighton in "Blithe Spirit"

At the heart of Tara’s vision is the belief that the performing arts are the ideal vehicle for adolescent intellectual and personal development. Our curriculum, which weaves together rigorous academics with drama, music and movement, awakens in each student a unique capacity for inquiry through discipline and artistic expression. Performance at Tara builds personal confidence and community spirit, preparing students for success in all of life’s endeavors, from professional training in theatre & music to careers in education, law and other disciplines. All-school performances include a holiday choral festival and a major musical. In addition, each class works in depth on a play, enriching the production with historical, literary and cultural exploration and research.
