Testimonials

"Our kids (even the 'too cool' for this kids) were very engaged throughout the performance and some teachers did a follow-up writing activity. I had prepared the kids before the performance with storyline, characters, etc. It fit very nicely into my music curriculum as well as our literacy curriculum. Beautiful music, beautiful dancing, close proximity to the audience kept the students engaged"

Carolyn, Teacher, Dr. Gustavas Brown Elementary

"Wow, what a great performance and a great audience!! I love that the students had this opportunity. One boy in my class, who has a difficult time focusing and completing work, sat in rapt attention. I turned around to look at him and he had tears in his eyes. I said, "Logan, what's wrong?" and he replied, "I just really like this." POWERFUL!"

Megan, Teacher, Nantucket Elementary

"Our students were fascinated by ballet, a dance form most of them have never been exposed to. The fact that this assembly incorporated a story familiar to students made the performance that much better."

Tammy, Teacher, St. Leonard Elementary
