Suffield Academy offers robust programs in music, theater, and dance. Students have numerous opportunities to excel in the arts—both onstage and behind the scenes. Each year Suffield produces two major theatrical productions, two popular guitar shows, a one-act festival, several jazz and ensemble performances, multiple choral performances, and a full dance production. These provide students with hands-on experience in performance, lighting, sound, stage management, set construction, and house management. Our extensive performing arts facilities include state-of-the-art theater, set design shop, recording studio, dance studio, and music center. The performing arts program supports experienced actors, dancers, and musicians, as well as those who want to get involved in the arts for the first time.

Suffield’s performing arts curriculum teaches students to:
¦ Understand performance as a form of communication and expression
¦ Discover the joy derived from creating and performing works of art
