Amy Beaucham
Founder and Director of Dramatic Fanatics
Amy Beaucham is the founder and director of Dramatic Fanatics, where she combines her love for theatre and education to offer an empowering and engaging program for youth, with recent expansions to include adults. She holds a degree in Theatre from Georgia Southern University, where she earned the annual “Best Actress” award, and a master’s in Special Education from West Georgia University, with certification in Gifted Education. During her 35 years in public education in Georgia, Amy integrated drama into her teaching and was honored as Teacher of the Year by Treutlen County.
After her public school career, Amy worked as a counselor and drama teacher at ClearWater Academy, a school for students with learning differences. She continued volunteering at ClearWater for three additional years, leading weekly improv classes.
Amy founded Dramatic Fanatics in 2004 and has since developed a thriving youth drama business, now expanding to Indiana where she offers workshops and classes for both youth and adults.

Amy also treasures her involvement in community and professional theatre. Some of her favorite lead roles include Nancy in Oliver, The Witch in Into the Woods, The Fairy Godmother in Cinderella, and Reno Sweeney in Anything Goes. She founded The Southside Sidekicks improv troupe and was a longtime member of Newnan Theatre Company’s NITWITS troupe. She also initiated youth programs at Southside Theatre Guild, including The Associates and The Southside Rascals, which have had a lasting impact on young performers.
Amy now lives in Culver, Indiana, where she continues to share her love of theatre with new communities while staying active in her own theatrical pursuits.
