Performance at Tara

At the heart of Tara’s vision is the conviction that the performing arts are the ideal vehicle for adolescent intellectual and personal development. Our curriculum, which weaves together engaging academics with drama, music and movement, awakens in each student a unique capacity for inquiry through discipline and artistic expression. Performance at Tara builds confidence and community spirit, preparing students for success in all of life’s endeavors. All-school productions include a holiday choral festival and a major musical. In addition, each class works in depth on a play, enriching the production with historical, literary and cultural exploration and research.

“Being in a Tara production pushes you to places within yourself that you never thought you could reach, and when you get there, and you think you have done everything you can, there is still one more performance to go, and you have to stretch even further. It is in that place, after crossing over the threshold, that you discover new things about yourself.”
