History:

Adrienne founded DRAMA Productions LLC in 2003 while working with The College of Charleston's national GEAR UP program. Adrienne taught and prepared middle school aged students skills to help them perform better during statewide standardized test using the arts. In 2005 Adrienne moved to California, where she soon landed a job in Hollywood as the Executive in Charge for an upcoming Christian Production Company, Good News Holdings. She managed several stages of productions for the company including their $40 million dollar movie “Christ the Lord out of Egypt.” by Ann Rice. During this time in Hollywood, Adrienne’s passion for education did not die.

While working full time in Hollywood, she also partnered with the State of California and worked with their program Para las Ninos. She taught life skills to high-risk foster youth between the ages of 16-21 years of age. After working with the program for two years, Adrienne saw a major opportunity within the community for the arts. It was then she decided to attended graduate school in London, where she received her MBA in business.

In 2012, Adrienne re-launched DRAMA Productions with a focus on teaching Life Skills through the arts. Currently we are expanding and looking for more opportunities of growth within our community and state.
