I love feeling not so alone. I am the only drama teacher is my district and it can be very isolating. I spent my first year digging up my own curriculum for 6 different classes and now I have DTA and it’s members as my sounding board.

Customer Appreciation

Julia Perlowski English / Drama Pompano Beach High School
You are one of the Rock Stars of the Youth Theatre world in my estimation. I just performed This Phone Will Explode at the Tone with my kids at District 7 One Act Festival. Your plays are GREAT to work with. The kids love the scripts and we can do lots of different things with them.
Susan Voskamp, De Pere High School
I just wanted to tell you that my cast LOVES your play (Look Me in the Eye). They have done more analysis on the plot and character (all on their own) than with any other show I have done. I would like to express my gratitude for your work. Last year we did your Ths Phne 2: The Next Generation and we went to State with it. It is so great to find quality scripts on modern topics that students can relate to. Since we have to take everything on a school bus, I so appreciate your simple, easy sets. You are our secret weapon for the One Act Competition. Keep up the great work.
Nancy Arndorfer, Merrill High School
I sincerely enjoyed directing your creation. There were lots of wonderful characters and I had a great bunch of students with creative ideas. Many of the plays I read before I chose one have similar themes but yours piqued my interest in the first couple of pages.
