Drama

The Creative and Performing Arts Drama room is a dedicated performance space with a purpose-built amphitheatre and a control room. There is a dedicated space for props and a dressing room that is currently being renovated to match that of theatres such as the Illawarra Performing Arts Centre. The entire space is scheduled for a major renovation in 2026, which will feature innovative lighting, sound, and staging modelled off the performance space at Wollongong High School of the Performing Arts. Watch this space!
