Roeper Theater Company
The Roeper Theater Company (RTC) has distinguished itself with a rich history of adventurous productions, outstanding quality, and an exciting creative environment for students. Three Main Stage productions are performed annually, representing a broad repertoire extending from classical to contemporary pieces.
The RTC also provides a Second Stage Season that gives middle and upper school students opportunities to choose and workshop new or lesser-known works, including student directed productions. Notable recent productions include A Man of No Importance, Cabaret, The Laramie Project, and Comedy of Errors. Both middle and upper school students are given the opportunity to participate in all aspects of production and to work with some of the area's most respected theater artists.
Throughout the Lower School, students often perform classroom skits, presentations for families, and talent shows. More formal performance experiences begin in Stage IV when students chose elective courses in instrumental music, vocal music, dance, and theater arts. Students perform for the community at least twice a year in evening concerts and there is one staged musical production annually which is scored for developing voices.
