“I recommend Young Audiences at every opportunity I get. Every school should provide their teacher and students with the opportunity to have a creative experience with Young Audience artists.”

“This was an incredible show. The dancers were professional, informative, and interactive. The leader, Ramya, clearly knew how to organize a theater of middle school students (over 230 students!). The explanations were an appropriate length of time, and the costumes were gorgeous.”

“The students absolutely loved their experience with Alex. They especially enjoyed how Alex incorporated their bucket drums which they had made in music class into the workshop. Many students commented on how much the enjoyed the activities in which they could solo and be leaders. A few compared their activities to snowflakes because each time they played together it was different and unique just like snowflakes. In music class the following week after the workshops, the students came in and spontaneously started singing the songs which Alex had taught them.”
