“It went well and we enjoyed the vignette approach.”
Victoria Wittmaier, Warrensburg Middle School
“The students loved this play - I feel like it allowed them to express themselves in a safe environment. While doing reflections it opened up the floor to conversations about real-world issues and we channeled those emotions into the performance. It was great all around and I would love to do it again next year.”
Robin Walsh, PEMBROKE PINES CHARTER MIddle
“Our young actors enjoyed performing this play. It allowed them an opportunity to develop humor as well as compassion without the burden of many technical requirements.”
Craig VanRenterghem, Marathon Center for the Performing Arts
“This vignette-style is divided into monologues and small group scenes, so it is easy to rehearse, even if you are missing a student or two, and allows you to showcase many performers.”
Chelsye Ginn, Switzerland Point Middle School
“My cast really enjoyed the subject matter and the character work.”
Meg Hirman, Lakes International Language Academy
