2007 Summer Kids Workshop
Here's what parents say about the Musical Theater Summer Workshop...
Thank you for your hard work. David, my 13-year-old son, has attended several Workshops for the last three summers. Other programs in the area require auditions -- only the talented kids are picked for coveted roles and others perform in the chorus. At Light Opera Works, however, if a child wants a chance to perform a lead role, talent is not how they are chosen.
The staff does a tremendous job of balancing those with talent and those with a love and desire to perform. The choreographer is sensitive to all the kids' abilities, and works to make all of them great dancers.
Thank you for allowing the kids to sing softly, off-key, stumble around a bit, and perform the musical productions with enthusiasm and joy. They were truly "stars" of this production.
– Mary Beth Rubin This experience for our son Jarod has been one of incredible growth -- mainly because he has suffered his entire life with social anxiety. He works harder than you could imagine coping with his suffocating illness.
The very fact that he walked through the theater doors on Monday morning is a goal I didn't know if he'd ever achieve. I do know he is an inherently dramatic kid, and my wish for him has always been to simply "be" who he is naturally outside his home. I think he is doing that with you.
We have introduced Jarod to many different sports and activities -- and usually hear "Why do I have to go?" For the first time yesterday, I hear him say, "I love Annie Camp." For Jarod, you have made a difference that will profoundly affect him the rest of his life.
