Drama
"It is in living and acting that man establishes his relationship with being, with the truth and with the good. The artist has a special relationship to beauty. In a very true sense it can be said that beauty is the vocation bestowed on him by the Creator in the gift of “artistic talent”. And, certainly, this too is a talent which ought to be made to bear fruit, in keeping with the sense of the Gospel parable of the talents." – Pope Saint John Paul II, Letter to Artists, 1999.
Saint John Paul the Great Catholic High School is committed to the formation of youth. We believe, and studies have shown, that education in the Fine Arts is essential to a well-rounded education. The dramatic arts provide the students with an opportunity to plan, design and perform meaningful theater to the public. In addition, students working in this area develop important skills such as, how to provide and accept constructive criticism, how to collaborate on a project or performance, and how to reflect on what you are presenting to others. All of the performances at John Paul articulate and honor the value of the human person, as well as promote the Mission of the School.
