“ The full show from beginning to end was just spectacular . It just really builds a community within the Grade 6s and 7s . I made so many friends and just being given the opportunity to be able to perform and be up onstage with all these other people who have the same interest as me . It ’ s such a gift .” – Isabelle , Grade 7 , Actor
“ My character is very confident , so I had to boost my confidence onstage too . You ’ re not really going onstage and doing all this as yourself … you ’ re expressing someone else . You ’ re like a new person when you go onstage . It improved me a lot with my confidence in public speaking , which is a really good life skill .” – Ella , Grade 7 , Actor
