At The International School of Moscow the discipline of dance, drama and singing are skills learnt by our students that don't disappear when the curtain falls. They are skills for life.

Drama includes dramatic play, story enactment, imagination journeys, theatre games, music and dance. "Let's pretend" is the norm in drama class, not just a child's game.

Drama can help children learn about emotions, problem solving and relating to other people. Through their experiences with drama, students develop their imaginations and their confidence. One of the most special thing about drama is that there are not "wrong" answers - through pretending, animals can talk, students can travel to outer space or the jungle and the sky can be green while the grass is blue.

Whilst not every child can be expected to be a natural performer, through plays and performances we aim to help every pupil develop a sense of ease in public situations. Our whole school productions also contribute to fostering a strong sense of community within the school with each pupil contributing in someway to the production.
