The performance was superb! The children were engrossed from start to finish and wanted more.

The kids watching and participating in her performance didn’t need to be told twice to listen; they
were riveted by Pease’s performance.

When you add movement to a poem, it makes it so much easier to understand.

You all did an amazing job this summer. The performance showed real and substantive accomplishment by the children – a testament to your team’s work. Congratulations and THANK YOU!

Dave Young and Robin Pease came to my class and taught my classmates and me about the fundamentals about writing music and composing music.

THE LAST FUGITIVE SLAVE performance showed the emotional distress and physical consequences of the slavery institution; Robin incorporated students into her performance, directly having them see the importance of the teaching of history and culture by means of the theatrical arts.

It was very interesting to learn about all the different kinds of acting skills.
Kirk, a student
The message was right on target - every student was engaged.

When I had to go up and say my part, I thought I would be nervous. When I get nervous, my voice gets deep and it didn’t get deep. I wasn’t nervous and I was surprised they didn’t make me nervous. I was comfortable. They probably made me conquer my fear on getting nervous in front of people.

Ms. Pease is a very committed artist who works quite well under the pressure of deadlines; I am amazed at how much she is able to accomplish in short periods of time. A strong commitment to excellence is apparent in all of her work. She is very good at keeping people focused on a task or goal and is adept at coordinating multiple simultaneous projects.

Learning has never been such fun and so moving. It is a great way to learn history!

I really enjoyed being able to work with a group to being a poem to life using drama.

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.

In addition to teaching in the schools, she is one of our best presenters of teacher professional development and is called upon regularly by other arts organizations for professional development.
