Testimonials

"I just returned from the wonderful performance of Illstyle and Peace at Poolesville High and I wanted to immediately give my kudos on a fantastic performance and program at our school. The performers were outstanding and did a great job of captivating typically jaded and hard to please teenagers (who usually think anything to do with cultural arts must be "lame"). I would highly recommend this group to anyone interested in an assembly."

Beth, PTA, Poolesville High

"They were fantastic. Our 8th graders were hanging on every word and watching every move!"

Kelly, Music teacher, Arbutus Middle

"Illstyle and Peace Productions presented a fantastic "History of Hip-Hop" performance at our ES. They were engaging and high energy. Very educational and the students were mesmerized. Performers made full use of the room's space. The talent of the 5 five performers was truly exceptional, and you can tell they really enjoy presenting in schools. Fantastic message about being positive. Would highly recommend."
