Drama Kids International

Brand Summary

Drama Kids is a low-investment, mobile franchise that helps kids build critical life skills like confidence, creativity, and communication—soft skills that matter more than ever in today’s tech-focused world.

No theatre background? No problem. Franchisees don’t need performance experience or a physical location. Classes are held in schools and community venues, keeping overhead low and flexibility high. We provide all the training and tools needed to run and market the business, teach our award-winning curriculum, and hire and manage a teaching team.

Franchisees are supported every step of the way—with 1-on-1 coaching, small group sessions, and regular all-owner trainings that foster connection, growth, and success.

With strong brand recognition, growing demand, and a model designed for scalability, Drama Kids offers a meaningful way to impact kids’ lives while building a profitable, flexible business.
