with Drama Kids International of Rochester

 

2023-2024 DKI Creative Drama & Acting Academy

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.

 

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 programing to last them through graduation.

2023-2024 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.
