The West Valley Drama Club strives to connect students interested in theater to the West Valley theater department by providing them a voice, aiding in the academic process, and helping to develop theatrical careers within the college and beyond.
The club sponsors workshops, an annual spring showcase, and fundraisers. During a typical school year, meetings are held weekly or biweekly depending on the department's events.
