8th grade Drama went on a field trip to Portland Center Stage to see a student matinee of Kate Hamill's adaptation of Pride and Prejudice, to wrap up a study about the theatrical convention of Comedy of Manners and The Importance of Being Earnest, as well as having two Portland Center Stage teaching artists come to Tumwater for a workshop, including the performer that we saw play the part of Mr. Darcy.

Portland Center Stage's education initiative allows for middle and high schools in the area to see shows that they otherwise might not have access to.

We had a group of 33 students, and 3 parent chaperones who attended, and we hope to attend more of these trips throughout the year!
