Christina, you speak the language of the heart!
Every performance I see touches me because it is so pure. You manage to reach both young children and older 'children.' Beautiful stories portrayed in an atmospheric magic, thanks to the wonderful lighting and music by Gilian. You are TOP!

Saw a super fun performance today at Theater Concordia

The Frog Princess was truly delightful. Group 2-3 of St. Jan Primary School can't stop talking about it. Thank you!
