The Sequential Dramatics Program has been designed to provide programming to Every Child in your district, Every Year your district participates. We understand the degree of commitment in providing arts education opportunities to students and, as such, are equally committed to making our program available to any interested district. Please contact us to discuss how the Merry-Go-Round can help your district join over 55 others in taking advantage of the Sequential Dramatics Program.
