Corrie Peach McCulloch
Owner & Teacher
Corrie was a shy child and found that theatre gave her a safe space to find her voice, with the eventual result of playing the lead role of Kim in her high school musical “Bye Bye Birdie”, including two solos! Corrie went on to compete in voice competitions and still enjoys singing musical theatre numbers to this day. Corrie coached children’s soccer for a number of years, and raised two amazing (she admits that she is biased) children, who’ve both graduated from Texas A&M, her daughter with a masters who works in wildlife conservation, and her son with a degree in biomedical engineering, she also volunteers with Big Brothers Big Sisters and enjoys spending time with her “Little”.
Corrie is excited to bring the magic of theatre into other children’s lives through the DramaKids program. She provides a safe and nurturing space for her students, with lots of fun and energy, the right amount of silly, along with the structure to help “her kids” succeed. Corrie is also an artist, and brings creative fun through set design to her DramaKids classes. Corrie teaches after-school programs and summer camps too, and is looking forward to helping your child find their own shine.
