Built Around Your School

Every program is custom-designed for your school's goals, budget, and students whether you're starting a drama club from scratch or reinvigorating an existing performing arts program.

How We Can Help

  • Full-Service Production

    Our directors and choreographers lead everything from auditions to opening night.

  • After-School Drama Club

    We can run a drama club that gives students a creative outlet beyond the classroom. No existing theatre program required.

  • À La Carte Support

    Need help with just one piece? We can step in for costumes, set design, props, or choreography.

  • Community Collaboration

    We team up with your parent volunteers to make the production a true school community event.

What Schools Are Saying:

  • Paula and Diana, The production of Annie at DMS this past weekend was beyond phenomenal. As a school community we are sincerely appreciative of your direction of the play. The singing, choreography, and acting were outrageous for middle schoolers. Thank you so much for your efforts. This was a production that will live forever in the minds of our students.

    —Jon Reagan

  • Paula and Diana, I wanted to express my sincere appreciation for your work on the DMS school play. It was absolutely a beautiful piece of art. We are beyond fortunate to work with Curtain Up. We could never put together the caliber of performance without you. Thank you so much for your time and energy.
