A flair for the dramatic

Shine a light on your talents! Whether you favor acting in the spotlight or working behind the scenes, student theatre offers you a platform to express your creative side. All are welcome to join.

Each semester, the Drama Club at the Blue Bell Campus and West End Theatre Club at the Pottstown Campus produce two performances benefitting the Theatre Arts Merit Scholarship.
