It can be hard to find acting classes where every child gets an equal chance to shine. At Theatre of the Imagination, we provide after school and weekend drama classes that build confidence, where your kid always has a part perfect for them. We nurture your child’s flair for the dramatic in a positive and fun atmosphere. Great for ages K-8th grade.
When your kiddo has a week off school, you need them to stay busy and happy! We provide week-long sessions of drama camps in Summer and Spring, where kids can be themselves and build confidence. Join our next camp!
Doing an audition in a quiet room is much harder than being on stage. We provide private acting coaching for kids or adults, to help you get prepared for taking your next step in the acting world! We can help prepare for auditions, create your resume, learn about talent agencies, and help you reach your goals as an actor.
When you’re hosting a large event or fundraiser, the success of the evening always comes down to how good your MC is with the crowd! With our MC, DJ, and auctioneer services, we can bring your crowd to life. We find out your goals, help you shine as an amazing event coordinator, and help you pull off an amazing event!
Kids can be hard to impress these days with all their fun birthday party options! With our Moving Making Birthday Parties, we’ll come to your event, give all the kids custom made parts, and film and edit a home-made movie all in one night! Your kids will keep the memories, and you’ll keep the bragging rights for best party ever.

What Students are Saying
My time at Theatre of the Imagination made me feel unstoppable! It gave me the confidence away from school that I needed to spread my funny wings and fly.
From making a brand new movie every day to learning new scripts every week to singing and dancing, Theatre of the Imagination let me stretch my creative muscles in ways I would never have expected from any other drama camp. I am happy to say that I made great friends that I still talk to today!
If not for Theatre of the Imagination, I would not be where I am today. I was a wallflower as a child, but I so wanted to bloom. My dream was to be on the stage, but I was too nervous to try. My mom enrolled me in several drama camps around Kansas City, but none of them really clicked for me. Then I found TI and found my place!
I really liked how I did not have to try out for a role. I started when I was six, and I wanted to be a princess, but I also wanted to be a ninja. Mr. Miles wrote that part just for me, and I karate chopped my way through the play with the biggest smile on my face. Finding the place where I could be myself, silly and weird, was just what TI did for me.
Drama is all about bringing people together. I started at the TI drama camp not knowing anyone, and by the end of the first day, I had two new best friends. One of them is my partner at our law firm today.
I love how we practiced our plays, made up silly jokes, and just got to be goofy the whole time. Yes, we were learning, but it didn’t feel like school. The teachers made the atmosphere comfortable and inclusive. We all felt special. Nobody was ever the “Third Xmas Tree From The Left”.
