critical acclaim“The quality of performance is so pure and bright that children are fascinated throughout, all the while being exposed to superior theater that does not pander to their young age. The entire cast is very strong. The music and lyrics by Evelyn Rudie are the magic of the show. They provide a style and energy that keeps the children glued to the action.” LA. Parent

WHAT’S HAPPENING “Very professional! – carried out with flair and enjoyment!” THE OUTLOOK |
educators say“A marvelous performance…the response on the part of all the parents, teachers and students who viewed the performance was overwhelmingly positive. In a time when we are crying out for cultural experiences for our young people, Author! Author! provides a taste of good theater to an audience hungry for such a production.” Temple Jeremiah
“I have heard nothing but positive responses from our students, and I know they enjoyed the play. They have taken to calling each other ‘Chelmites’ and are using other Yiddish terms they learned in conversation. Our school now abounds with schnooks and paskudniaks. I think you can sense they were not only entertained but that they learned something in the process…we were amazed, astonished and uplifted at the Santa Monica Playhouse. And in fine style, too.” Glendale Adventist Academy |
