Thank you, Drama Mama & Jillian, for always believing in me when I felt no one else did. You continued to have confidence in me, even when I didn’t have it in myself. You inspired me to step outside of my comfort zone, and to do great things. Drama Kids has made such a huge impact on my life, and I am excited to help other Drama Kids have a similar experience!"

Teacher & Class Manager in Clifton Park, Guilderland & Saturday Colonie. "When I first started at Drama Kids, I had no idea where it would take me. For years I was enjoying the positive atmosphere, increased self-confidence, and the sense of community and teamwork that is unique to this program. After learning so much, I felt inspired to teach and showed interest in becoming a camp counselor. From that point on, it has been an amazing experience to continue the company's values by creating a safe, educational, and fun environment for the children. And thanks to Deanna, Kristyn, Jillian, Kathryn, Destiny, and Lita, they have fueled my interest in teaching and the education field in general."
