  “A wonderful and invaluable resource for all ESL teachers” My students LOVED the experience, and for a few, it was the first time they had seen a play in English,.”


Linda Stephenson, Educational Opportunity Center, Westchester Community College

 “We loved the show. I was so impressed with everything, particularly the presenter’s questions and acceptance all audience responses. And the chance to questions the actors at the end while they stayed in character was fabulous. You truly do great work.”
