The Child Drama Program at Siena Heights University was a well-established educational theatre program that provided high-quality weekly classes for students ages 5 through 18. Along with producing at least one fully staged production each year, the program offered specialized summer camps in performance, technical theatre, puppetry, and stage combat.

​

University students were encouraged to explore every aspect of theatre, including directing, teaching, and creating original work. During my time with the program, a play I co-wrote, The Mighty Mikko, was selected for production, reflecting the program's commitment to fostering creativity, leadership, and student-driven storytelling.
