Drama（戏剧）and the performing arts are excellent methods of building confidence in children and adults alike. Learning through drama allows children to 36 their creativity and have fun while leaving their 37 and worries behind. Drama also works by supporting the growth of imagination and other skills.

Drama installs confidence in children by allowing them to improvise（即兴创作）and experiment. Everyone is given the opportunity to shine 54 drama. Besides learning the history of the theatre, drama 55 dance, music, and directing, etc. These classes are especially designed to be of great fun.
