Extracurricular Theatre Opportunities

The Sabre Playhouse at Southside Christian School offers students opportunities to participate in theatre both onstage and behind the scenes. Each school year, our Fine Arts Department presents four theatrical productions, allowing Elementary School, Middle School, and High School students to audition for performing roles or serve as members of our technical crews.

Our annual theatre season includes:
  • Elementary School Fall Production
  • Middle & High School Fall Production
  • High School Winter Production
  • Middle School Spring Production
With more than 50 productions presented throughout the years, the Sabre Playhouse continues to grow and provide students with meaningful theatrical experiences. Recent productions include Seussical KIDS, Elf the Musical, The Lion King KIDS, Cinderella: Youth Edition, Annie JR., and The Wind in the Willows.

In addition to performing, students have opportunities to explore technical theatre through stage management, lighting, sound, scenic design, costumes, props, and backstage crew.

Southside Christian School was also selected as a 2026-2027 Disney on Broadway School of Excellence, recognizing our school's commitment to excellence in theatre education.

Class Opportunities

Middle and high school students can develop their theatrical talents through our Sabre Players Competition Course.

The Sabre Players Competition Course provides students with advanced training in acting, musical theatre, and technical theatre while preparing them to compete at regional, state, and national theatre festivals. Students develop their performance and design skills through individual and ensemble work, participate in theatrical competitions, and gain valuable experience through workshops, adjudications, and professional learning opportunities.
