Drama for Kids

The arts can help students become tenacious, team-oriented problem solvers who are confident and able to think creatively.

Arne Duncan, US Secretary of Education

In other words, drama teaches learners to be focused and โ€œin the momentโ€ – skills that are highly prized in this world of diminishing attention spans and over-dependence on gadgets. Drama Education is the best gift we can give our children.

And at SMActs, we strive to give your children the best drama experience in Singapore. We ensure a professional theatre venue, complete with a professional production team to provide a platform on which your child can shine.

We pride ourselves on commissioning original scripts from writers all over the world to create a universe that children enjoy inhibiting โ€“ Greek mythologyโ€™s Mt. Olympus, Haunted Houses, Time-Travelling in the Time of COVID and The Trial of the Big Bad Wolf are just some of our past performances (hyperlink to gallery?)

The thrill of a performance in full costume along with all the confidence boosting benefits of theatre arts. Thatโ€™s a winning combination!

No wonder parents hail SMActs as the best drama class for children!

Our students are taught the basics of presentation skills - body language, eye-contact and vocal variety.

We give the children a problem - a character might be trapped in a cave; how should he escape?

We give them a platform to channelize their endless imagination create their own magic.

A play is a team effort. Rehearsing together and helping each other remember lines teaches them the importance of being part of a team.

At SMActs, there are no "wrong answers", just different perspectives, Once children realize their ideas are valid, they develop the confidence to share their vision.

We play drama games designed to exercise the organs of articulation. So the muscles in the mouth - yes, the tongue is a muscle - grow stronger and children articulate better.
