Drama is offered in Pinetree's Treehouse Theatre. Students may expand their performance ability by participating in school plays or in the school's award-winning improv team, Code Orange. The shows put on by the drama department sometimes feature pit bands, singing/dancing performances and audience interaction.

Pinetree's student body also releases a monthly newspaper called The Inbox that is completely student run.

Famous quotes containing the word arts:

    The textile and needlework arts of the world, primarily because they have been the work of women have been especially written out of art history. It is a male idea that to be “high” and “fine” both women and art should be beautiful, but not useful or functional.
    Patricia Mainardi (b. 1942)

    No performance is worth loss of geniality. ‘Tis a cruel price we pay for certain fancy goods called fine arts and philosophy.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
