Drama

The dramatic arts at the Sitar Center provide an outlet for self-expression through role playing, thinking strategically and situationally, and working as a team. Drama is unique in its ability to address issues that are normally not addressed with ease and confidence in other circumstances.

Music Theatre Workshop, which is currently led by teaching artists Maureen Dwyer, Jennifer Lindsay, and Diana Rumrill, combines the elements of vocal music, movement, and drama. The Sitar Center also produces an annual summer musical.

A new partnership with Arena Stage enriches the drama program as well as a partnership with Washington National Opera.
