Business Review
"I was so impressed with the show I saw performed by WCS students. Young professionals, already bringing their own truths to the stage... I saw acting choices made -- things most kids don't even think about at this age, but rather in college and conservatory training. They seemed to have a deep understanding of the material with their individual monologues and of the work as a whole. I saw confidence on the stage; no one seemed nervous and I got the sense they understood the work was more important than themselves. Performers used their blocking with purpose... All of this is a testament of the training they were receiving. ...Presence, ENERGY, diction, maturity, emotional connection, and in effect, moving the audience by their own truthful performances... What an outstanding opportunity for kids and teens to learn a solid technique for acting where the internal world of the character is expressed -- not with superficial or external tricks."
