“Best educational program I’ve seen in years.”
Elementary school principal“You were fabulous entertainers! We appreciated your ability to adapt to the audience (ages and activity levels). Your music was first rate and engaged the entire audience aged 2 - 62! Who will ever forget the ‘flying fish’?! Thank you so much for all the audience participation. You both are great at including fun facts in the drama. We all learned something new!”
Children’s Services coordinator“Your program was enjoyable for any age. I felt the audience was really into your program. You communicated well with the children. Watching the reaction of the various ages I felt the adults enjoyed it as well. I rate your program wonderful! Thank you for coming to our library.”
Children’s librarian“Wonderful performance, perfect for the 3 year - 9 year crowd we had.” Youth Services supervisor
“Your program is wonderful in every way. It seems to me that your methods involve techniques that are designed to captivate the kids in a way that makes learning fun. Who would ever think that kids could get so “into it” when dealing with the Renaissance?”
Festival arts director“I thought the quality of the program was superb!”
Elementary school principal“The use of a puppet was especially appealing to lower elementary. The children seemed to really enjoy being allowed to tap and clap along with the music. Thank you for a very entertaining performance.”
First grade teacher“Well done! Very appropriate to age, kept students’ attention—they learned a lot without knowing it was happening. They loved the opportunity to participate. The orderliness-predictability was very helpful to this age so they would know what to do next and how to respond.”
Elementary school principal“It was a high-quality program: musical, humorous and educational!”
First grade teacher
“Anne & Rob Burns were very professional. Children enjoyed the costumes and jokes.”
Elementary teacher“I would like to thank you for your wonderful performances at Children’s Day this year. ‘The Soap That Got Away’ was a delightful joy to watch and the children and their families were truly enriched by this charming and humorous musical production. Thank you for helping us make Children’s Day a successful effort. We appreciate your talent and professionalism.”
