Mrs. Duque – (Room 512) - The OMS Drama Dawgs perform two productions each school year - a play in the fall and a musical in the spring. Students of any grade level can be involved and participation in the productions as a performer is by audition only.  Students can also be selected to assist with sets, costumes, and backstage work.  If a student is in the fall production, that does not guarantee they will be in the spring production -- students will audition for each production.  Commitment to each production is of the utmost importance.  Everyone is welcome to audition for Drama Club Productions!
