Why Study Drama?
Because it helps.
“The clown has great importance as part of the search for what is laughable and ridiculous in man. We should put the emphasis on the rediscovery of our own individual clown, the one that has grown-up within us and which society does not allow us to express.” 
Jaques Lecoq
Because it has meaning.
"Drama represents how we live, how we have come to live this way, and how we might live differently. It uses and comments on the webs of rules, conventions, status, traditions, collective identities, taboos and other shared meaning that constitute a community's culture. Making drama involves pupils in discussing and commenting on these cultural concepts."
Prof. Jonothon Neelands

Because we're human.
"I try to bring the audience's own drama - tears and laughter they know about - to them."
Judy Garland

“No amount of fire or freshness can challenge what a man will store up in his ghostly heart.” 
F. Scott Fitzgerald

“All the world's a stage and most of us are desperately unrehearsed.” 
Sean O'Casey
