Testimonials

"I get to be super happy hanging out with so many people - younger, older, and people my age…It's kind of like if you were to have a huge family…you'll find things in common and things that are different between you...[TheaterWorks] is such a huge part of my life. Without TheaterWorks I don't know what I'd be doing today. They make me a better person, I'm like a little ball of clay and they've shaped me into who I am." - Brianna, TheaterAlive student

"My girls loved it. They really got out of their comfort zones and had a blast." - Spring Break camp parent

"The professionalism, creativity, positive culture and climate is top notch!" - Spring Break camp parent

"One of the biggest things I love to teach through music is empathy. I think that empathy is something that every single human in the world should have and through creating music and creating art we're able to teach people that it's ok to be vulnerable, it's ok to understand how other people feel, and to feel that we can accept others and understand the space that they're in." - Samantha Isley, Music Director
