Drama Kids Programs

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.

2025-2026 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 6th Grade. Upon reaching Middle/High School, students move up to Acting Academy with more high-quality programming to last them through graduation.
