Formed in 1995, D'RAMA Productions, recognised by the National Arts Council as an Arts (Drama) Education Company, seeks to bring Drama into the lives of students.

Our Drama and Education team is headed by Mr Danny Jow, B.A. (with distinction) Drama, Queensland University of Technology, Australia.

D'RAMA Productions is actively engaged in training students to develop life-skills and creative thinking through Drama in Education. We have taken this program to several schools around Singapore including St. Hilda's Secondary School, Queenstown Secondary School, Fajar Secondary School. On top of this, we have drama programmes training students to put up performances, be it sketches, plays or musicals as part of their Experience Arts Education Programme. Victoria Junior College, St. Andrews Secondary School, Zhong Hua Secondary School are some of many schools that have engaged us.

Apart from that, D'RAMA Productions is also heavily involved in School tours and National Education through drama, having staged several different plays ranging from issue-based plays to historical events as part of the students' Exposure Arts Education Programme.

Even as Science gains importance and is an investment in the future and the key to Singapore's global competitiveness, the humanities (ARTS) must continue to keep the country humane.

Straits Times dated 17 Feb 2001

Our mission is to use drama as an educational tool in imparting life skills to the young, We would like to impart to the students the appropriate drama skills and cultivate in them a love for the arts, whether as an observer or a practitioner. We aim to achieve this by providing holistic educational drama programmes, employing both academic and creative platforms, dealing with issues and themes that are relevant to our young.

To prepare and produce students who would be world-ready, yet rooted to Singapore, a number of programmes have been implemented, including character-development and creative thinking taught as skills throughout the curriculum.
