Along the way, Carol became Miss Santa Clara, worked as a model and actress in print, television, film, and theater, and owned and operated several dance schools. She has spent more than 30 years teaching ballet and has produced and directed award-winning television programming and theatre productions.
Meet Carol Romo
Carol’s love of the performing arts began at just seven years old, when she first stepped into the world of ballet. That early love of the stage grew into decades of experience as a dancer, actress, teacher, producer, and director.
Behind the Curtain
The Heart Behind Theater Fun
Eventually, Carol turned that lifetime of experience into something of her own. Theater Fun first began with princess parties, bringing beloved fairytale characters to children’s birthdays for stories, games, music, and dress-up. It soon grew beyond birthday parties with original interactive productions like The Royal Prince, bringing costumes, music, and mini theatrical experiences into schools and the community. What started small would eventually grow into something much bigger.

A Dream Takes the Stage
As Theater Fun grew, so did the opportunities for young performers. What began with princess parties and interactive theater experiences expanded into school programs, where Carol could share her love of performing with even more children.
From a Love of Theater to Theater Fun
Over the years, Theater Fun evolved into the full musical theater experience it is today, bringing young performers together to audition, rehearse, learn, and ultimately take the stage in a complete musical production.

Our Mission
At Theater Fun, young performers don’t just learn about musical theater, they experience it. Through the process of putting on a full musical, performers receive hands-on training in acting, singing, choreography, character development, stage presence, and working as part of a cast.
From the first audition to the final performance, each step becomes part of the learning experience. Performers build confidence, take creative risks, and discover what they’re capable of while working together toward something they can be proud of.
