★★★★★Doug HarderAn all around performing arts center allowing individuals grow from wherever their starting talent level is toward the goals they hope to achieve. The shows they produce are amazing.
★★★★★Dave LashWatched wizard of Oz Jr. The kids were awesome! Audio was nice and clear. Reasonable too! $16 a ticket. Concessions were reasonable also. We had pictures with the actors too.
★★★★★Erika MusselmanJa'Duke is an excellent local family-owned and -oriented business. My children attended performance classes and traveled to New York and Disney. They did summer camps when they were young and driver's education when they were older. I have watched my children participate in numerous Ja'Duke productions over the years, and I have participated in several productions myself. They are welcoming and inclusive of all levels and abilities. The theater they built in good ol' Turners Falls is amazing, comfortable seating with a grand stage and plenty of room. I highly recommend Ja'Duke for all who seek to try dance and performance and for those who enjoy just watching. From musicals and dramas to community benefits and comedies, from day care and summer camps to driver's education (which is absolutely fantastic, best in the area) and music lessons, Ja'Duke has something for you and your family!
