"We had the best experience. My daughter has been anxious and not wanting to get on stage for the past several years. This was her first time in years and PAA made it a fantastic experience. She felt loved and comfortable. She was pushed gently out of her comfort zone while feeling valued and successful. Whatever you are doing its working!"

"This was our first experience with PAA and we were amazed by the professionalism and incredible talent you shared with us. My daughter, Rosemary, had such a wonderful experience and will be looking to participate in future productions."

"This is my first time at PAA and I've done other shows in my high school and I had no idea how amazing this would be."

"I use to only have one or two friends and now I feel like everyone of you are my friends."

"I've never done a PAA show and this community is really great."

“My daughter expressed that she felt safe to make mistakes at PAA. This is huge coming from a kid who is extremely hard on herself. She also told me that it was such a positive and supportive environment compared to the high school drama programs she has worked with. She felt loved and valued by the directors, staff and fellow students."

"Everyone supports each other. I was nervous about my role and everyone helped me"

"If you make a mistake, no one gets mad at you. They help you and support you."

"My daughter struggles with confidence and anxiety. After doing the spring production of Mary Poppins, I noticed a HUGE difference in her confidence rising and some of the anxious behaviors that she exhibits were not happening.....because she has found her clan."

"The directors made us learn everybody's name on the first day, and made us all feel equal. I still don't know the names of everyone in my high school musical cast from last year, but this cast feels like family"

"I didn't know it was possible to make so many new friends this fast."
