The Bishop Timon - St. Jude Drama Club is one of the most active clubs at Timon.
The Drama Club has gone on field trips to such places as The Pfeiffer Theatre in Downtown Buffalo, The Center for the Arts at the University of New York at Buffalo , the Irish Classical Theater, Kavinoky Theater, Studio Arena, and has spent a full day in Toronto attending various performances.
Some of the past musical productions that the Drama Club has been involved with included Damn Yankees, Over Here, Godspell, Little Shop of Horrors and Kenny award winning musicals; The Wizard of Oz and The Music Man.
Six years ago, Timon's Little Theatre was brought back to life. Shows include Twelve Angry Jurors, Harvey, M.A.S.H., Get Smart and Meet Me In St. Louis. These plays are presented in the Crowley Family Center for Media and the Arts on the third floor of the school.
The Drama Club played a significant role in the construction and rehab of the third floor of the school. Through their efforts, and the countless hours of dedicated alumni, the new jewel of Timon has been created-The Center for the Media and Arts. With the addition of this new Center, the Drama Club has been active in hosting "guest artist presentations". In recent years, Vincent O'Neil has conducted readings of "Angela's Ashes", "Joyicity", and "The Importance of Being Oscar". In additions, workshop are presented by professional teachers in such areas as Audition techniques, Lighting Design, Theater Employment, and Stage Crew training in lighting, sound, and scenery construction.
Besides being involved with dramatic theater productions, the Drama Club also participates in community activities. The Drama Club collects canned goods, food and clothes for the St. Rita and Pat's Christmas Fund Drive. This year, this fund drive has been renamed to the "Max McCabe Christmas Fund Drive for St. Rita and Pat's" in memory of a Timon alumnus-a true, dedicated friend of Timon and the Arts.
