The School of Theatre began with our summer musical theatre workshops and has grown into full productions, actor training, and theatre tech group classes.

Students will gain industry knowledge towards acting training and dramatic standards through the NSSOTA Stage Program.

Performances are held in our state of the art Black Box Theater that is equipped with theatrical lighting, special effect machines, theatrical sound, and more.

THEATRE TECHNIQUE:

Our Theatre Techniques class teaches the fundamentals of storytelling, character development, script, stage, and more. Build confidence and self-esteem, and prepare for the stage while developing those “triple threat” skills (acting/singing/dancing) that every theatre/musical theatre student must have to be successful.

Stage 1 Theatre Program

Coming soon! Stay tuned for our fall schedule.

NSSOTA’s approach is that theatre students receive well-rounded theatre group classes which include technique and building a foundation, instead of drama classes that only focus on a performance. In doing so, our students are set for success with auditions for productions, building soft skills such as self-confidence, and are being given an education on all elements of theatre not just performing.

Stage 2 Theatre Program

A Lion King Experience

A Lion King Experience!  Develop your ACTING, SINGING, and DANCING skills as we rehearse and perform The Lion King Experience in our STAGE 2 Theatre Class this summer. 


Disney’s The Lion King has captivated the imagination of audiences around the world, and now our STAGE 2 students have the opportunity to produce this one-of-a-kind musical theatre experience. We will bring the African savanna to life on stage with Simba, Rafiki, and an unforgettable cast of characters as we journey from Pride Rock to the jungle and back again in this inspiring, coming-of-age tale.

Main Stage Theatre Productions

NSSOTA provides performance opportunities throughout the year for productions within our Black Box Theater – NSSOTA Main Stage Productions and NSSOTA One-Act Projects.

Productions include musicals, revues, straight plays, and dramatic classics.

NSSOTA Main Stage productions provide students with emphasis on acting excellence and character portrayal in full costume and scenery. While implementing all major theatrical elements, students explore classic plays, musicals, and other genres of theatre.

NSSOTA One-Act Project provides opportunities for actors to shine in a minimalist setting of a black box theater. The content of a one-act project can vary to include special projects, workshops that focus on specific genres, skill building, etc. Typically, one-act projects are shorter in length with costuming and scenery paired back to highlight the cast in a truly unique experience.
