Wa-Hi Drama program featured in national theater magazine

The Walla Walla High School Drama Program was showcased in national Back Stage news magazine (www.backstage.com) in the May 31-June 6 issue. Featured in the "Teen Drama" section -- A National Picture of Performing Arts High Schools -- Wa-Hi was mentioned alongside well established and funded private Arts Academies.

Wa-Hi Drama teacher Brian Senter offers hints to his methods for teaching successful drama instruction. Senter says his focus is often on voice. "Valley-speak has ruined the way we speak in America," Senter says in the article.

Whitman College is also mentioned in the article as Senter praises local professional actors and guest artists for coming over to work with high school students.

Senter says its an honor to be featured in a prestigious national magazine and speaks to the quality of the programs being produced and performed through the Walla Walla High School Drama Department.
