“What a treasure is your program! If only all children could be exposed, through such an opportunity, to one of the greatest literary figures of all time.  I have always said how much we underrate the capacity of the young, growing human brain. You have proven that, given the opportunity to stretch their abilities, the children can reach remarkable heights in producing such quality Shakespeare plays.”

~Dr. Marian C Diamond, Professor, Integrative Biology, UC Berkeley; Director Emeritus, Lawrence Hall of Science.
