Our Story
More Than a Performing Arts School
Founded in 2000 by Theresa Di Meglio, FAME School of Performing Arts was created with a simple vision: to provide exceptional performing arts education in an environment where every student feels supported, inspired and empowered to grow.
Over the past 25 years, FAME has become one of Richmond Hill’s leading performing arts schools, helping thousands of children and teens discover a love of singing, dancing and acting while developing confidence, discipline and lifelong friendships.
Today, that vision continues to guide everything we do. Every class, rehearsal and performance is designed to challenge students, celebrate their individuality and foster a genuine sense of belonging. Whether stepping onto the stage for the very first time or preparing for advanced performance opportunities, every student is encouraged to grow—not only as a performer, but as a person.
At FAME, we believe the lessons learned on stage extend far beyond the spotlight. They become the confidence to speak up, the resilience to overcome challenges and the courage to pursue new opportunities long after the final curtain falls.

What Makes Us Different

Community First
We believe the strongest performers are built in supportive environments. Respect, kindness and teamwork are at the heart of everything we do.
Our Philosophy
Every Child Deserves a Place to Shine
We believe performing arts education is about much more than perfect technique.
It’s about helping children find their voice, express themselves with confidence and experience the pride that comes from working toward something meaningful.
Whether a student dreams of Broadway or simply wants to try something new, every child deserves to feel seen, supported and celebrated. At FAME, we meet students where they are, encourage them to take creative risks and help them discover what they’re capable of—one class, one rehearsal and one performance at a time.
