Rufus King has a proud history of theatrical productions, dating back to our school's beginnings in the late 1930s.  More recently, in the more than two decades that David T. Mackinson was the teacher at the core of Rufus King Theatre, the scale and quality of productions increased alongside the amazing International Baccalaureate curriculum in Theatre Arts, for which Mr. Mackinson was a founding member of the original worldwide steering committee.

Today, Chad C. Kopenski and Adam J. Jacobi '95 direct the curricular as well as extra-curricular opportunities in theatre arts.  Both have a longstanding involvement in theatre at Rufus King and a deep pride in the work our students produce.

Recent productions have included:

• The Nerd, Fall 2004
• You're Invited... Again: Student-Directed One-Act Festival, May 2005
• Japanese Nō Drama Festival, (IB Theatre 1), November 2005
• House Arrest, December 2005
  
• William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, Spring 2006
