Drama Kids USA, the U.S.-based arm of Drama Kids Global, has been ranked No. 1 in children’s enrichment programs as part of Entrepreneur Magazine’s annual Franchise 500—and No. 399 in franchises overall.
The Franchise 500 is an annual ranking, now in its 46th year, of best franchise opportunities based on high performance in brand strength, size and growth, support offerings, and costs and fees. To create the rankings, more than 1,300 submissions were vetted and analyzed, with the top 500 receiving official rankings.
“We’re incredibly proud of the growth we’ve achieved, thanks to our amazing Drama Kids family, and we’re excited to share the joy of Drama Kids across the United States,” says the brand in a statement. “A heartfelt thank you to Entrepreneur Magazine for recognizing our commitment to excellence.”
The honour is a boon to the whole Drama Kids Global community, which has recently entered the Canadian marketplace.
“Drama Kids USA’s success shows the power of the Drama Kids concept as we enter the Canadian market,” says Ellie Reynolds, CEO. “It’s sure to resonate with the great white north!”
Drama Kids offers a unique approach to drama classes for children and youth aged three to 18.

The proprietary curriculum is centred around an inclusive and supportive environment that engages children’s creativity.
With 45 years of industry experience and 150 franchisees worldwide, teaching 100,000 children each week, Drama Kids has long been a major player in the children’s services and home-based business industries. This long-running system is now developing franchise locations in Canada.
