Each quarter, our Mainstage Musical or Play rotates between local elementary schools.
If your school is scheduled this season, here’s what you can expect:

🎭 Performers Program
Dandylyon Drama brings full-scale school productions within reach. Every student is cast in a role that celebrates their strengths and helps them grow in confidence. We work closely with your PTA or school team to organize parent volunteers and offer creative solutions for sponsorship, fundraising, and tiered tuition — making the experience accessible and affordable.

🌟 Mainstage Performers
Our flagship enrichment program culminates in a full production on a professional stage. Students rehearse multiple days a week at their school with professional teaching artists. They explore acting, character development, dance, and music while building friendships, social-emotional skills, and confidence.
🎭 Two 40-60 minute costumed performances with lights, sound, sets, and props.

🌱 Opening Act Performers
Designed for younger grades, this program gives K-2 students a chance to shine with one song and dance number as the opening act of your school’s Mainstage performance.
🎭 Rehearsals are held once a week and lead to two 5-10 minute costumed performances.
