Acting Up!

Trish Reda

I cannot say enough about Acting Up and its director, Christina Harris and her staff. My daughter has been through other drama programs and Acting Up, is by far, the best. Gracie learned the most while having the most fun. Her workshops over the school year are always packed with a lot of fun and learning in a low pressure and safe group of peers. Apart from the dramatic skills the children learn, they also learn how to carry themselves in front of an audience. This has translated into my daughter being much more poised when she is public speaking, interviewing or just speaking confidently with adults she is meeting for the first time. Christina and her staff are kind and gentle. If you have a shy child, this is a safe and fun environment for them to face that challenge without being aware they are being challenged. I have witnessed some truly amazing transformations in some of her kids. The bolstered self esteem they walk away with is perhaps the most beautiful thing of all. I think every kid should try one of these workshops or Summer camp at least once.
