Drama Club

There are many students in this school who have an interest in theater and who also love to perform and act. Drama Club is a group of students at Wilsonville High School who get together to talk about theater events, and also like to join in when performing for our school’s plays and musicals. 

Once a week during lunch on Thursday, the drama club meets together and talks about drama events at Wilsonville. Recently, they are all talking about the school play “Puffs” and how it is being showcased after school. Many members of the Drama Club are in the play themselves and are continuously working to bring the school productions together.

Students of all grades are welcome to join Drama Club. The topics they cover are all related to theater, and binding a bond with others. It’s a positive community that supports one another with their goals and interests. Sydney Cederberg, a freshman, describes it as “a small and fun community.” 

The Drama club is led by four Wilsonville High School students along with Mr. Katz. The President of the Drama Club is Xander Povey, a junior. He leads the conversations and ensures everything runs smoothly during the meetings. “I like talking about plays but it’s more about the people for me,” Xander explains about his feeling for the club. “Being able to create a space that is welcome for those who might not have a place to go is important to me.” 

This fun and active club doesn’t just always talk about drama and theater, some days they will spend the time playing games and creating a stronger bond with each other. Many members describe this club as a “warm and welcoming” environment. The drama club is always welcoming to everyone that is interested in joining the theater community.
