Performing Arts at Einstein School

Einstein School offers a robust Performing Arts Academy to all Einstein students who are interested in pursuing theatre and music.  The areas of study include theatre arts, musical theatre, choir, speech, set design, theatre tech and more.
The Einstein School Players put on two full length productions each school year.  There is also the opportunity to earn points for induction into the International Thespian Society.

Our Performing Arts program is guided by the philosophy that Performing Arts offers something for everyone by teaching lessons about perseverance and teamwork that students can apply to any future skill.

The ensemble nature of our performance group, The Einstein School Players, and of our choir, The Voice of Einstein. reflect these values.

Einstein's Performing Arts Department is headed by Julliard-trained Lisa Taylor Vass.

Ms. Lisa made her Broadway debut in the Stephen Sondheim’s Sunday in the Park with George as Bernadette Peters’ understudy, and she is one of the few American women to have directed Shakespeare in London. Lisa Vass is the 2020-2021 recipient of the Educational Theatre Association President's award. This prestigious accolade recognizes theatre educators who have made "exceptional contributions to their students and programs" during the school year.
 
The Einstein School Players – our Einstein School theatre company – is where students learn to act, sing, and dance. Every fall, students perform a play, and in the spring, they perform a musical. As cast and crew, students learn the ins-and-outs of theatre production, building concentration, motivation and confidence. Together, students learn the importance of perseverance and the joys of teamwork, delighting in a job well done. At Einstein, we inspire our students to color outside the lines and to apply the lessons they learn in theatre to the rest of their lives and educational career.
