"We are thrilled about this extra curricular activity, Dramatic Fanatics. It is a great addition to the required academic program and is extremely convenient as it is conducted on the premises. More importantly, we can see the results in practice. My daughter applies skills learned at drama while doing presentations in her class: projecting her voice and keeping contact with the audience. She plays games learned in drama with her friends in her leisure time and it opens up another venue for her interests to develop imagination. It is a lot of fun with a personal benefit! We try to enroll in drama at every chance we get."

-Svetlana Soroka (Parent)

"My mom, Mrs. Beaucham, is practically super human. She's made shy children belt, turned class clowns into tragedians, and even taught prima donnas to share the stage. But most of all, she gives kids a chance to be anyone and anything they want to be. Even dragons."

-Libba Beaucham (Daughter)

"Mrs Beaucham is encouraging and supportive.  She tries to match each student with a character that showcases their talent."
-Andee Nix (Student)

"My two daughters took one of Ms. Beaucham's Dramatic Fanatics courses and it was a great experience for them. I could tell from the classes I sit in Ms. Beaucham was very passionate about drama and teaching children about drama. She teaches the proper way to conduct on stage and as well as the proper conducts during class. I wish all the teachers were as dedicated as Ms. Beaucham, spending lots of time to help kids to rehearse and familiarize with the play. Both my girls weren't keen on performing in front of people but they did well at the-end-of-class performance. They really enjoyed the class."

-Angela Rovang (Parent)

"Dramatic Fanatics s a wonderful class! It helps children use their imagination, find their voice and gain confidence. It’s a fun class and creates the opportunity to make new friends. Amy and Janet are so kind and warm. One of the best things they do is let each child know how unique and special they are as an individual."
