★★★★★Christine SturchThe Children's Theater Company has been such a joy to be a part of. From after school plays, to summer camps to full on theater productions Margo and Amy and the whole CTC team has provided a place where kids can be proud, build friendships, showcase talent and have a safe place to be themselves. Our daughter has struggled with her confidence and figuring out where she "fits". Being a part of the Children's Theater group is where she shines her brightest and we are grateful for Margo and her team for the safe and fun environment they provide. And the final productions are so much fun and a proud moment for all of us!

We have been blessed by having them in our daughter’s life. They are truly THE BEST!!! Our daughter was excited to go to practice, had fun, made new friends and had built a stronger self-confidence. She had an outstanding experience!!! This Company has really great programs for children!!!
★★★★★Sara SchargMargo did a fabulous job with my daughter’s birthday party. The kids were engaged, having fun and building confidence and self-expression all while working together!
★★★★★Jessica NeimanThe Children’s Theatre Company is a place my daughter can call home. She walks in and immediately feels confident and happy. They have a way of making each and every individual that walks in the door shine. After 6 years of taking classes we have never once walked away disappointed. I can’t wait for the next production!!
