I really enjoyed your presentation and had a lot of fun performing. I think you're really cool!
Jacob, a student
The performance was superb. The children were engrossed from start to finish. They wanted more!

Thank you. I especially will be using the side-by-side comparison of the Great Law of Peace and the Constitution. And my students enjoy learning about the Native American symbolism present on U. S. currency.

I believe the show clearly demonstrates that the "Founding Fathers" based many portions of the Constitution on their knowledge of Iroquois government, rather than on the Magna Carta, as textbooks often claim.

The message was right on target - every student was engaged.

I especially enjoyed how the whole class got to create!
Matt, a student
I loved how you were interactive with everyone.
Shaylin, a student
I don’t usually gush, but this was FABULOUS! For 45 minutes, Robin Pease held her audience
spellbound (students and adults alike). She skillfully created an awareness of cultural differences while augmenting the children’s awareness of the even greater degree to which we are all alike.

Learning has never been such fun and so moving.
Clara Barton Elementary School, Levittown, PA
It was very interesting to learn about all the different kinds of acting skills.
Kirk, a student
I really enjoyed being able to work with a group to being a poem to life using drama.
Kayli, a student
When you add movement to a poem, it makes it so much easier to understand.
Maddi, a student
Thanks! We need more PD like this in order to motivate our students to actively participate and learn concepts in various ways. Bring Robin back!
Renaissance Theater, Professional Development Participant
Your workshop with my 7th graders was not only outstanding but also memorable. After you left, our assistant principal stopped in and the kids insisted on showing him their Civil War poetry presentations. He was duly impressed.

Robin Pease was the keynote speaker, a constructive and inspiring addition to the festival....she really held the attention and interest of the entire auditorium. Teachers came away with a better understanding of how to enhance storytelling with dramatic arts principles, and use stories from diverse cultural backgrounds to create activities that address learning standards.
