with Drama Kids International of Rochester

Enjoy an internationally loved program that uses a curriculum with a variety of fun, fast-paced activities each class to develop skills in public speaking, communication, self-expression, teamwork, leadership, and much more! Choose from our traditional skill-based drama classes "Creative Drama" and "Acting Academy" or take your performance skills to the next level with our popular “Take2” Performance Academy classes.

2024-2025 DKI Creative Drama & Acting Academy

The Drama Kids International copyrighted original curriculum uses four to six fun, fast-paced activities each class. Activities vary between individual, partner, small group, and whole group. Elementary students can move through the "Creative Drama" Program without repeating a lesson from PreK to Sixth Grade. Upon reaching Middle/High School, students move up to Acting Academy with more high-quality programming to last them through graduation.

​

Fall (Sep-Dec): Fun, fast-paced skill building and improv concluding with a Showcase of Skills!
 

Winter (Jan-Mar): Fun, fast-paced skill-building while learning DKI Scripted Original Performance! Everyone shines on stage with scripted lines, ad-libbing, and costumes.

Spring (Apr-Jun): Fun, fast-paced DKI skill building while Creating Original Plays the Drama Kids Way!​

2024-2025 Take2 Programs

Drama Kids "Take2" Programs are available for those currently registered in Creative Drama or Acting Academy. All Take2 Programs will rely and build on skills being developed in the requisite Creative Drama or Acting Academy. With this in mind, we have more time to go above and beyond! Our students are always our #1 focus. We focus on BUILDING CONFIDENCE, not on the show! No singing or dancing experience is required.
