FAQs

Drama Kids has open enrollment until we start rehearsals for Spring Performances. On January 31st, enrollment will close until we open again for the next school year session.

Tuition will be adjusted to exclude the classes prior to your enrollment.

Our School-Year classes have a Money-Back Guarantee. If, after your first class of the school year, it is clear to you that Drama Kids is not a good fit for your child at the moment, please contact us within 24 hours to receive a full refund. We can always try again at a later time. Our email address is [email protected]. Having said that, please know that some children may take as many as 7-8 classes to warm up, learn the routine, realize that our classroom is a safe space where they are not being judged, and become comfortable in their Drama Kids class. Due to the nature of our program, we consider this to be a fair trial period for the student to get acclimated to the program. Oftentimes the most reluctant students are the ones we see blossom the most!

Yes! Drama Kids teachers are excellent at meeting each child where they are. They can change their teaching style to adapt to any student by helping them when it is needed and challenging them when they are ready. We recommend your child give the class a chance for one full month to see if they truly enjoy it!

Our yearly tuition is separated into monthly installments for your convenience. You pay the same amount of tuition each month on the same day regardless of the number of classes in a month. The monthly tuition price takes into consideration all scheduled days off for holidays or non-school days.

Tuition cost is specific to each individual class. You can find the tuition prices listed next to each class. Find the right class for you in the menu at the top of the page.

Yes, there are a limited number of scholarships available to those who qualify. An application process is required to determine eligibility. Please send an email to [email protected] to request a scholarship application.

For our school-year classes, the first child in a family pays normal tuition, and siblings living at the same address receive a 10% discount. This does not apply to Take-2 classes.

Our classes begin with fun introduction activities that prepare the students’ bodies, minds, and voices for the Drama Kids class. Then, in our speech component, students hone their articulation, projection, and volume control skills. In the creative movement portion, students implement postures, body language, and physical storytelling. In our main lessons, students perform short scenes (either scripted or improvised) to combine their speech and movement skills with their own creativity. Each class concludes with a high-energy activity.

At the end of the Spring Semester, students perform a Spring Showcase Presentation. This is a short theatrical performance where students are given the chance to demonstrate the skills they’ve learned in class. Each student gets a character with lines to memorize and uses teamwork to rehearse in class and perform for parents and family at the end of the year.

For the comfort of other students, and because we require adults in close proximity with students to be background checked, Drama Kids does not allow parents to observe classes from inside the classroom. However, we have several Parent Participation days throughout the year, which is a great way to experience a class with your child. And of course, your family is invited to watch your child at their Spring Showcase Performance.

Absolutely! These classes are offered within our Drama Kids Take 2 Performance Academy, which are held at our most centrally located classroom at St. Mary’s Episcopal.

Take 2 Performance Academy is a program that focuses on building children’s confidence through the magic of musical theatre! For more information, click here or select “Take 2 Performance Class” under the “Drama Classes” menu.

Because we serve students in CyFair, Klein, and Tomball areas, we decided to hold our classes at St. Mary’s due to its location near the center of our territory.

ALL students in our Take 2 Performance Academy must also be registered in and regularly attend a weekly Drama Kids skills class, either Creative Drama or Acting Academy…NO exceptions. These weekly skills classes are crucial to the success of our shows, as this is where our students receive the foundational skills needed to perform an amazing show.

The program is equal installments of $99 a month.

There is a $50 show fee. The fee covers the cost of the script, tickets to the performance for your immediate family, digital photos and video, and a t-shirt.

Yes! Take 2 Performance Academy is the perfect introduction to musical theatre and stage plays. Because every student is taking a weekly skills class in addition to this program, students learn and practice all their basic acting and public speaking skills before entering rehearsal. Then, they bring those skills they have learned into rehearsal, where instructors encourage student creativity when building a character and foster confidence through singing, dancing, and acting. Instructors never expect perfection but do encourage creativity and fun!

Community Classes – We have late afternoon/ evening classes at many community locations throughout Houston, Cypress, Tomball, Spring, Klein, and The Woodlands. Community classes are open to all children regardless of what school they attend.

We offer 2 kinds of camps:

• Creative Drama Camps meet 7 hours per day for one week
• Performance Camps meet 7 hours daily for two weeks and conclude with a stage performance

Creative Drama Camps explore different themes in a fun and interactive way. Each day is comprised of a variety of activities, from short plays to improvisational scenes, and includes theatre games, arts and crafts, and more. These camps are perfect for children of all ages and experience levels.

Performance Camps offer students a chance to perform in a musical or a stage play, depending on the offering for that summer. With acting, singing, and choreography, these camps can challenge children who have experience in theatre while also presenting musical theatre and stage acting in a fun and easy way to digest for beginners.

We offer summer camps at a large number of locations throughout northwest Houston, Cypress, Tomball, Klein, and Spring.

Tuition costs are specific to each camp. You can find tuition prices listed next to each camp.
