Tiger Drama students can extend their theatre experience beyond the classroom through productions, festivals, adjudications and workshops at the local, state and national level.
Extracurricular Opportunities
After School Tiger Drama Productions
All LC students have the opportunity to audition for roles in Tiger Drama's after-school productions or apply to work backstage on crews. Tiger Drama typically produces two shows a year that are open to all students.
Other performance opportunities come from advanced acting and/or musical theatre classes. Students enrolled in Stagecraft often make up a significant portion of the crews.
Tiger Drama Club
Our drama club is open to all LC students regardless of current or past involvement in the department.
Drama Club is a place for students to connect, have fun, stay involved in our theatre community and receive announcements for upcoming events and opportunities.
For the 2026-2027 school year, students were also given the opportunity to select Drama Club as their Connections/Study Hall Advisory, which meets on late start Mondays at 9 am in the theater.
We meet every other Wednesday from 2:45-3:15 pm in the theater.
INTAF: Inland Northwest Theatre Arts Festival
This two-day festival has typically taken place at the end of October at a local Spokane high school, bringing together over 350 students from Washington and Idaho.
Industry professionals lead workshops and performances on a variety of theatrical subjects. Students can have material adjudicated for future festivals or participate in workshops that culminate in performances at the closing ceremonies.
There are fees associated with this festival and scholarships are available.
International Thespian Excellence Awards
The Thespys give students a chance to have their work evaluated by theatre professionals and receive feedback they can use to grow as artists.
The awards are sponsored by Washington State Thespians and can qualify students for State and National Thespian Festivals. In past years, students submitted virtual performances in January for adjudication. Students who earn a Superior rating qualify for the International Thespian Festival in June.
Students may enter up to three categories, and there is a small participation fee.
Washington State Thespian Festival
This two-day festival celebrates Thespian achievement with schools statewide. Students can view other school productions and works in progress and attend workshops.
The festival has been held in March in Seattle. Students who participate in Thespys in January are eligible to qualify for State.
Travel requirement: All students who travel to the State Thespian Festival must purchase an LC GSL card in the Business Office.
