Drama Club is the sixth track on Melanie Martinez’s second studio album, *K–12*, released on September 6, 2019. The song critiques societal expectations and the performative nature of social interactions, reflecting Martinez’s signature blend of dark pop and theatrical storytelling. Co-written by Martinez, Jeremy Dussolliet, and Tim Sommers, and produced by One Love, the track delves into themes of authenticity and resistance to conformity. The accompanying music video, directed by Martinez herself, was initially part of the *K–12* film and later released separately on November 21, 2019. The visual narrative complements the song’s themes, portraying a surreal depiction of a school setting where the protagonist challenges the superficiality of her peers.
