“The Unusual Suspects’ theatre program is a wonderful program for our school. With limited resources, the program allows our students to have access to high-quality performing arts curriculum. Many of our students, including students with disabilities, have found the program to be a safe place to be themselves.”

“Your programming is excellent for my grade level; I feel like a person knowledgeable in Early Education put these activities together. One of my students gained a lot of confidence. He used to cry whenever I would ask him to do something, and now he volunteers to participate in The Unusual Suspects and sometimes the classroom. Another one of my students has clearly benefitted in terms of physical expression, and another has less sensory-seeking behaviors.”

“Thank you and all involved with getting this program to be a part of my class. My students enjoyed and looked forward to seeing Brittany and Mara each Wednesday morning. I sure noticed almost perfect attendance on Wednesdays (and I attribute that to how much they enjoyed the class). My students increased their confidence and speaking skills. It was awesome seeing them describe how they felt each morning using the 1-10 scale. And I am grateful for the time spent in helping my students create their stories. It was good timing because I was teaching them about writing personal narratives and emphasizing the importance of having a beginning, middle, and end. Again, thank you!”
