"As a school counselor, I know that children can benefit from
activities that build up their self-esteem. I believe that drama and
music are two of these avenues. I have spent the time and been
involved with the full experience of rehearsals, exercises,
performances, etc with children involved in drama and have seen
the results of a positive experience for all. I especially believe that
children can benefit from the social interaction that goes along
with this process. I strongly believe a child will benefit from the
instruction, experience, and social growth that comes from being
involved with Kids' Backporch Productions!!" - School counselor

"The minister of our church was in the audience on Friday along
with his wife and grandson. He was very excited and impressed
with the whole thing. He loves kids and really felt you did a
fantastic job with the Narnia cast. He loved the sets and the
costumes and just the whole presentation, and wants me to find out
if it would be a possibility for you to bring a production to our
church" -- Audience member
"'Let's Pretend' was a weekly radio broadcast for children in my
early years (I'm now 77). I looked forward to this program every
Saturday morning to hear a fairy tale and to let my imagination take
me into the middle of the story. I have always loved theatre -
dreamed of being involved, but not 'on stage'. I have found joy in
making costumes, helping with mailing lists, helping the actors
hang their costumes, and in simply moving racks of costumes from
one room to another. There are many ways to be involved - many
needs present themselves with each and every play. Simply
v-o-l-u-n-t-e-e-r! It is very rewarding! "- Volunteer in the costume

"I wanted to say how wonderful your program is. My daughter did
Annie Jr. with another theatre AFTER doing Annie with Kids'
Backporch Productions last summer. I guess their focus was just
different. There was no emphasis on acting at all and the auditions
were so very simple. They only read one line from the script! The
show was good, but not unique like your Annie Jr. The kids didn't
get to 'make it their own' as you always said. Thanks, again, for
providing such a wonderful environment for these kids and giving
them the opportunity to truly be a part of the show. Your 'open ear'
to listen to the kids' ideas made every child feel important and an
important part of the show whether they had one line or thirty!
Hats off to a great program." - Parent of Annie, Jr. cast member
