"Not only do our students get involved and excited about the musical programs, but so do the families." (rural school program director)
"Without the Theater, I would just go home by myself on Sunday afternoon and watch tv." (older widow)
"The kids there had no idea what to expect from this program [Childsplay] since they had only seen movies or TV shows, and had never seen a live performance or been exposed to the idea of sets, props, or costume changes." (teacher small rural school)
"I love Paint Night and come to every one I can. It's one place where I'm not a Mom or an employee. I can just be me and enjoy myself. It's relaxing and refreshing"
