At Mel O' Drama, we foster a safe and supportive environment for children to explore the performing arts. Our classes give children the opportunity to express themselves, build their self-esteem and confidence, and to develop essential performance skills.
We use theatre games and activities to teach kids the basics of voice projection, articulation, and stage presence. We also incorporate music and movement to give children an extra avenue for creative self-expression. We believe that through our classes, kids can develop self-confidence and a belief that anything is possible.
Ages 5 - 8 yrs
