Drama

The Corcoran Association of Student Theatre prides itself as one of the only high school programs in Central New York to boast a full length theatre season, on par with the offerings of many local community and semi-pro theatres.[6]

Notable alumni
gollark: SPEAK LOUDER THEN.
gollark: Just constantly shout "TURN THE VOLUME DOWN" until they get rid of you and/or turn it down!
gollark: Actually, instead of ear protection you can use *active* sound blocking, by carrying around a giant set of speakers and automatically playing the Soviet national anthem at twice the volume of whatever they're playing.
gollark: *can't tell if serious*
gollark: Just go to live concerts but constantly wear very good ear protection to avoid hearing it!
