Drama Kids - Franchise
Where Dreams Come True
Our home-based business is a low-cost investment option, ideal for anyone passionate about guiding and inspiring kids.
Why a Drama Kids Franchise?
Drama Kids offers unique and fun-filled drama programs, theater classes for kids, and after-school acting lessons used across the USA and around the world to help children and young adults develop confidence, creative thinking, self-esteem, acting abilities, public speaking skills, leadership and teamwork.
Over the past decade, the recession-resistant children's extracurricular industry has experienced unprecedented growth, making it one of the fastest-growing segments of the economy. Even during an economic downturn, childhood enrichment remains a priority, making Drama Kids a recession-resistant business model. Our emphasis on overall child development at a reasonable price is why parents choose us for their children.
Enjoy the benefits of a franchise system that provides:
- Comprehensive, Valuable & Entertaining Curriculum:

Buying my franchise in the middle of COVID-19 was a huge risk. However, it turned out to be the best decision I’ve ever made. I’ve always wanted to be my own boss and work for something I’m truly passionate about. Drama Kids provides all the tools and ongoing support you will ever need. There is also a community of franchise owners who are always there to offer advice and exchange ideas. The smiles I see every day on my students are a constant reminder as to why I chose Drama Kids.Rachel Cohen - Drama Kids of Cabarrus County/N. Mecklenburg
I bought my franchise in 2016. I had been with Drama Kids since 2005 and absolutely fell in love with this program.I was able to see firsthand in the classroom the difference we make in the lives of children. Buying this franchise was a no-brainer. Students need a program like Drama Kids to help them become confident, well-spoken leaders on and off the stage.There is nothing more rewarding than truly making a difference in the lives of children and teens.Heather Dunham - Drama Kids of Southeastern MA
While researching for a quality after-school drama program for my oldest I discovered Drama Kids International. Everything about the program was something I knew I wanted my daughter to participate in. Unfortunately, there wasn’t a location available near me. So I made the decision to bring Drama Kids to my area. I knew it was something I would want to put my child in, and I figured so would others. I was so right! The program is designed to build children up and help them face their future with skills that are key for success, and when it comes to success, Drama Kids International gives you the tools to succeed. I had a successful launch in January 2023 with a full class on day one and have had to add more classes due to the number of new enrollments in just 3 months. Starting my Drama Kids business is one of the best things I have ever made!Nicole Chaplin - Drama Kids of Greater Akron
