Plumstead Christian School’s Musical Theater Director and a few of the school’s actors explore the importance of the performing arts at PCS, the beauty of the performing arts community at PCS, and why they see drama as an act of worship and an act of service to each other and to the audience.
At PCS, we believe art, music, and theater are wonderful expressions of the greatness of God. Join our Middle and Upper School fine arts faculty as they describe the essential nature of their programs within the context of a Christian school and how participation in our visual arts and performing arts enriches each student’s life for now and for eternity.
“Not only do students receive an excellent music education at PCS, but they also see Miss Wolfskill model a life of giving glory to God through music. It is hard to find a fine arts program in which God is glorified, and PCS has it. We are so thankful.” -Lane and Marcia Sattler
to Inspire Creativity
At Plumstead Christian School, we believe that God can use the power of storytelling in the dramatic arts to impart truth about who He is, who we are, and how we should live. Annually, our PCS theater groups perform a 4th/5th grade musical and a Middle and Upper School musical in the spring. Through these creative experiences students discover, explore, and hone their God-given gifts to their fullest potential as they experience the inner workings of theater from costuming, set-building, and make-up to various aspects of stage production and direction.
