Our Philosophy
When you see a musical at Do Re Mi, you'll notice that it's a bit of a challenge to follow the lead characters, as the faces keep changing. We are very proud of this little quirk as it sets Do Re Mi School of the Arts apart from every other children's theatre company in town. We believe that theatre can and should be a character building, learning experience, as well as fun and rewarding. We also believe that participating in the arts builds confidence and self-esteem. We do this by double- and even triple-casting the leads. Casting is based on a variety of factors including age, work ethic, talent, and dedication. Our youngest members often start as chorus members and work their way up to speaking parts. This teaches our students that no matter your talent, everyone must pay their dues. We teach our students that it's not about what role you get or how many lines you may have, but that theatre, just like any team sport, is about everyone working together to achieve the same goal. If you can make a starring role out of being in the chorus, you will have what it takes to succeed in theatre, and more importantly, in life. Over the years, we have found that the students understand and appreciate the fairness of our philosophy. We have also found that our parents appreciate the valuable lessons their children learn while in our program. The end result is a fabulous production put on by a TEAM of talented performers.

Show Choir (Spring 2026)
Show choir is the combination of song and dance within a performance. Our show choir classes gradually increase in level of difficulty, challenging our students as they grow older, and allow them to experience a wide variety of song and dance. Our Spring semester ends with a performance at Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts in a beautiful 850 seat theatre with full costumes, hair, and make-up. It's a special concert that you won't want to miss!
