Kelsey South     Office Manager/ Vocal Instructor


Hello to my future Peacocks and fellow performers! I have been performing on and off stage since day one and nothing else brings me more joy than exploring the creativity inside myself and others. I graduated Valdosta State University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Musical Theatre and Acting Performance as well as a minor in Dance. I am thrilled to be a vocal instructor and office manager for such a wonderful and creative company. Please don't hesitate to reach out for details on private instruction in tap, contemporary, voice, or acting!

Kelly Copeland            Owner/Instructor
Hi "Peacocks"! I am Kelly Copeland (Ms. Kelly) the owner of Peacock Dance and Theatrics. I have had the rewarding experience of creating and actively managing dance and theater companies for 35 years. Peacock Dance and Theatrics is the 1st of its kind. Through the years of experiencing the untapped plethora of ideas and fantastical possibilities that is our children's imaginations, it seemed only natural that the next mobile dance program should include "theatrical play" and self expression! It really is a blast of a ride and I am delighted to be involved!

            I have two beautiful daughters, Kelsey, 31, who is a musical theater graduate of Valdosta State University, and Savannah, 21, attending Georgia State. I look at every season as a new adventure. Your dancers are very special to me and I sincerely know how lucky I am that you are sharing them with me.


​​Peacock Dance and Theatrics is a unique dance and performance program that combines tap, ballet, and creative self-expression in every class. Our goal is to bring out the "inner performer" in all children as we see their confidence and self esteem soar! Our professional staff has extensive dance and teaching experience as well as a love of the arts...and for children!
Dance in color!
