Drama Kids has open enrollment, so your student can be enrolled anytime during the session! Except for Take 2 classes, enrollment closes the second week of class due to casting.

If we enroll after the session starts, do we still pay the full tuition or will tuition be prorated?

Yes! We will prorate tuition for most of our classes. Except for Take 2 classes. Enrollment closes the second week of class, and tuition is paid in full at the time of enrollment due to casting, costume, and materials fees.

Class Information

What do you do in each class?

Step into the Drama Kids world, where we kick off each class with a bang! First up, we have some super fun icebreakers that get our minds, bodies, and voices primed for action. Then, we dive into the speech segment, where our students sharpen their articulation, projection, and volume control. Our creative movement portion is where things start to get juicy. Here, students unleash their inner physical storytellers and master postures and body language. Next comes the main event, where students perform short, scripted, or improvised scenes that bring together their speech and movement skills with their unique creativity. Finally, we end each class on a high note with a high-energy concluding activity.

Do students put on a play at the end of the school year?

Starting after Spring Break, students start rehearsals for 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 at the end of the year. Please check your student’s class calendar for the specific date of their Spring Showcase Presentation.

Can I watch a class?

At Drama Kids, we value the comfort of all students attending our classes. With this in mind, we kindly request that parents do not observe classes. Instead, we encourage families to join us later in the year when the children are more settled to attend our Family Participation classes and Spring Showcases. This will allow them to fully immerse themselves in the experience.

Will my student have the same teacher all year?

Yes. In most cases, Drama Kids teachers instruct their classes during both the Fall and Spring semesters of the academic year unless there are highly unusual circumstances.

Musical Theatre Classes

My kid really loves to perform. Do you offer musical theater classes?

At Drama Kids, we’re proud to offer our exclusive Drama Kids Take 2 Performance Academy, where select locations may feature musical theatre classes. Check our class schedule page to see if there is a Take 2 class at a location near you.

Are there any prerequisites required to join the Drama Kids Take 2 Performance Academy?

To ensure the success of our shows, it is mandatory for all students enrolled in the Take 2 Performance Academy program also to be registered in a Creative Drama or Acting Academy class – no exceptions. This class provides the essential foundation and skills for our students to produce an incredible performance.
