Production Drama

Production Drama is an after-school, for-credit class in which students create and participate in Tech’s twice-yearly full-scale theatrical productions as part of Tech’s award-winning, critically-acclaimed OakTechRep student theater company.

Students in Production Drama and OakTechRep have the opportunity to perform challenging theater, to work with established professional actors, playwrights and directors from around the Bay Area, and to see first-rate theater productions in Oakland, Berkeley, San Francisco, and the California Shakespeare Theatre.

Recent OakTechRep productions have included “Oakland: Inside/Out” (winner of the prestigious American High School Theater Festival award); “Hamlet: Blood in the Brain” (Performed at the Fringe Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland); “Twelfth Night” by William Shakespeare; “Dracula”; and “Blues for an Alabama Sky.”

Production Drama class meets Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 3:30-5:00; short Wednesdays 2:00-5:00.  Classes and/or rehearsals may last until 5:30, and rehearsals may last longer as performance time approaches.

Participation in Tech’s productions may be open to students not in Production Drama, at the discretion of the teachers.

Teachers’ office hours: fourth period or lunch (by appointment)
