Although Yeshivah of Flatbush has always had a Senior play, Hebrew play, Yachad play, and Yom Hashoah performance. This year we added a wonderful addition to enhance the theatrical creativity called Drama Troupe. This group would perform for the student and faculty, five plays throughout the year in order to enhance the Yeshivah as a whole and instill the classic ideology of the, "renaissance man;" not only excelling in maths and sciences but also participating in creative ways and enhancing the entire Flatbush body as a whole. Recently two plays were performed over six times for each grade! The impacts were unimaginable and the feeling of accomplishment by the actors couldn't be put in words. Being a part of such a show and knowing that you had an impact on all of those who watched you really brings to life the feeling of how you can impact your surroundings. After the show when you're standing on the stage and everyone is clapping, you're not only proud of yourself but proud of your friends and the realization that you're part of something greater than yourself. I, as an actress and a vital part of the Drama Troupe, can continue my high school career knowing that I impacted my school and left my mark in a positive way, benefitting my school: Yeshivah of Flatbush.
