Today's production of Shakespeare's Two Gents Best Friends was awesome! Your talents blew us away and we are so lucky that you came to Doherty. Thank you all for making us laugh while we learned cool things about Shakespeare and what it is like to put on a show like this.

Thanks so much for the show and sharing your knowledge and creativity with us. Your work and art inspire me!

Your group is so high-energy and talented, and a lot of students had so much to say about the performance afterward which was exciting for us. 

2 Gents at Heller was a huge success. It was packed, something close to 70 people there. And the performance was great. So, please please consider making this an everyyear kind of thing. Please consider Heller as a potential home for Act Out. Perhaps even consider more than one performance here per summer. We would welcome it!

I just wanted to let you know how much the Haven students and teachers enjoyed today's show. It was wonderful! Throughout the rest of the school day I overheard students discussing their favorite scenes. It was just the inspiration they needed for their own upcoming Shakespeare performance.

The performance was amazing, the Goodwill participants enjoyed it very much. The actors were professional and easy to hear and kept everyone's attention. They also loved being part of the show.

We had a great turn out and everyone was very vocal about how much they loved it. The troupe was awesome. Organized, on time, and so friendly.

You all were FANTASTIC; we had so much fun! 

I was at the ACT OUT: 2 GENTS performance in OCC a few weeks ago with my dad. I don't know if you remember, but I was the audience member who was profuse in my thanks about the ending storyline flip. Rock on. You gave me such satisfying wish fulfillment on that play! We had so much fun. Thank you, and thanks to your team.
