In 1985, Helen O’ Grady, a popular TV actress in Australia, decided to create a completely new way to develop children and created a children’s drama program using various fun and fast paced drama activities to build children’s speaking, acting and social skills. Parents saw the remarkable benefits of class participation, and classes built quickly throughout Australia. In 1989, the program was launched into other countries as The Helen O’Grady Children’s Drama Academy.
Today her theater classes for kids have proved so successful that there are over 50,000 students currently attending classes in over 1,500 locations throughout the United States, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Southeast Asia, and Europe. Drama Kids International, Inc. is both proud and excited to be the exclusive U.S. provider of the Helen O’Grady Children’s Drama Program, the most popular after-school acting lessons in the world, offering theater classes for toddlers, kids, tweens and teens.

Many students in our after-school acting lessons discover the joy of acting and decide to pursue further stage work; other students attend just because Drama Kids helps them build important skills that are used in whatever future endeavors they pursue.
