DramAntiKs®, Dramatic Acting for Kids™ provides educational tools, after-school programs, professional music and theater training, and community theater productions dedicated to the enrichment of children and young adults.

Theater skills enhance children's self-esteem, make it easier to step into new situations, help them problem-solve, strengthen listening skills, encourage cooperation, make interaction with others more comfortable, and manage public speaking fears. Our goal is to provide regional and community programs in which children feel safe to explore and learn through instruction of theatrics and music.

DramAntiKs® programs and workshops utilize proprietary materials or customized programs, which insure each participant has an opportunity to stand out individually and as part of the ensemble.

Dramantiks® was founded in 2001 and is directed and overseen by Marguerite Pini. Ms. Pini has over 25 years experience acting, producing, and directing for professional and local theater. She is a CA credentialed teacher and holds an MA in Leadership Studies as well as an Educational Administrative Services Credential.
