Adjudicating


 “As a parent, I loved how inspiring, constructive, and thought-provoking the adjudicators were with our children! The wisdom and knowledge they shared with my son (and me) will go a long way in his (and my) theatrical endeavors.”

Music Directing 

"...GLAMDROMEDA, a rock-opera one-act with a blast of high-power energy that invigorates. This production is short and sweet, even though the original music by Benjamin M. Bonnema with lyrics by Christopher Staskel is so catchy it leaves you wanting more. GLAMDROMEDA is much like a concert, featuring Fernando Contreras as the larger-than-life and perfectly glittered lead singer who has an eerie power over Johnny (Marrick Smith), a boy next door about to experience his own kind of awakening. Each and every member of the rock-star cast contributes a stellar voice and magnetic passion."

Directing 

Dear Ms. Singer,

I am writing to tell you how much we enjoyed the performance of The Light in the Piazza; we attended the March 24th showing. It was a beautiful performance. Thank you for making it possible for us to enjoy.

The cast, crew and orchestra were just amazing. It was most professional. The acting was great, the singing excellent; I couldn't believe the quality. I couldn't believe that the performers were young people in High School. Yet, it was such a believable performance. It really established the time, the place, the setting and the story. You did "translate your love for the show," to us. Well done, well done! Even the coffee was delicious.

We were drawn to the play because I was familiar with the story - I have read the book several times and seen the old movie. But, I have never before seen the play. You did a wonderful job . . .  The story has special meaning to me. Thank you, the cast and crew again for an excellent performance.


Signed, 
Satisfied patron
On behalf of my family, I want to thank you and congratulate you for such an outstanding production of Guys and Dolls. My husband (who is not much of a theatre person) and my 7 year old son LOVED it. I was deeply impressed by the quality of all the performances.

As someone who has worked in college theatre, was a theatre teacher in a K-12 school, and even did some shows professionally in Chicago (as a costumer) I thought the entire thing was top notch, performances, sets and set changes, music, lighting, costumes, everything. Just amazing. I was glad to be a witness to it.

We'll be coming to more performances in the future. As we were reading
through the program, my son noticed that the next production was of the Fantasticks--he said: "I want to see that! Maybe it's a family of superheroes, like the Incredibles!" 

Given what we just saw, probably pretty close. The football team are not the only champions at Bradford. Bravo to all of you!
