Sharon Cruse

Owner & Director

Sharon Cruse, our director, is delighted you are here. Spending her early years watching her father create beautiful sets for her local high school, Sharon found her home in the theater. Since those days, she has always dreamed of finding a program that would allow her to teach Children’s Theater while including her own children in the process. Drama Kids’ commitment to self-expression through teaching ALL students valuable life skills in public speaking while developing self-esteem, confidence, creative thinking, and acting skills is a perfect fit.

Sharon has a Bachelor’s Degree in Theater Education from Taylor University and a Master’s Degree in Education from Indiana Wesleyan University. Prior to Drama Kids, Sharon was a theater teacher in Charleston County Schools and the Gaillard Youth Theater Camp. She is certified to teach theater in South Carolina and has 12 years of administrative experience, 8 of which as a school Director of Fine Arts where she was involved with over 20 fine arts performances a year. Having taught students in Primary through 12th grade, Sharon believes strongly in the incredible value of the Drama Kids experience. Please reach out if you have any questions about the programs we offer!
