i but many people, even at I l qGreen Run, do sing in choirs. R335 T., I x II' X i 'X 'N E r 1 l NX 1 - KFTQRN 4 A f L Y i i The 84 D... Although Green Qun is still fairly young, we've had our fair share of creative talent and expertise to start a solid foun- dation for the Stallion winning tradition. The fine arts classes at Green Run include all dra- ma, art, chorus, and band classes. Each class explores to the farthest depth possible the art form of the students. Are you one of those people who sings in the shower? Do you sing along with Prince as you cruise down the strip? Do you dream about singing for a big band and having fans pay hundreds of dollars to see you sing for a while and smile shyly into the crowd? Well, not everyone can reach stardom -Church choirs, community phoirs, and other various chor- t l i al groups are not the only sing- ing groups availableto ourstu- dents. Different levels of chorus provide everything from sim- ple music appreciation to very serious singers in the hard- working madrigals. The Green Run l-ligh School lvladrigals are the elite of the choral system. Throughout the year they perform at numer- ous concerts and school events. These have included performances at Green Run Elementary, the Beach Sher- aton, the New Spirit, and Tan- doms Restaurant. The Madri- gals also compete at the Jazz Festival atJames Madison Uni- versity each spring. They have won either first or second place each year for the last three years. The J.lVl.U. Festival is the highlight of the lvladrigal curriculum. Think back to your young days of elementary school and thoughts of being a star. As you became older you soon found that being class clown was fun but oral reports in class weren't so fun. Some people liked getting up infront of a group and soon found themselves learning the tricks ofdrama. ltjust could be that if you've had these thoughts but you haven't started acting, you may be interested in tak- ing a classg a drama class. Green Run offers a series of classes that study the drama- tic arts. Progressing from dro- ma 1 through drama 41, stu- dents come to learn various aspects of the theatre. Drama 1 students are intro- duced to the basics of theatre. They learn the building blocks of performance and technical Diana Koob sets her controls as Davld Kellerand CarlJennlngs su- pervlse. Autumn Faddls, assistant director, reads over the script ot The Cu- rious Savage. s-.vi -I-' work. Set design and basic set construction are a pari of dra- ma 2. Also included in drama 2 are basic costume design and experimenting with var- ious styles of speech. Drama 3 is a further study of the subjects of the previous years. Students use practical applications of set construction to build a model set and explore acting techniaues. Drama 41 is an in- dependent study of theatre. This year, drama A students directed six original one-act plays. Drama classes give a variety of appeal to all dedi- cated students and interested spectators: an appeal that all can enjoy. Alright, so maybe you dont sing as well as you thought so Mrs. Allen kicked you out of chorus. and maybe you fainted after breaking out in Cruzin' A
