★★★★★Hannah NelsonPAA has been a wonderful place for my daughter. She has loved the performances and the classes she has taken. PAA is very supportive and creates a safe environment for my daughter to grow, learn, and develop her talents and creativity. We love PAA
★★★★★Katie SchilbMy daughter has been participating in shows/camps at PAA for a year now. She has loved every experience and learned so much! I believe PAA is a great place for all kids to feel welcome, supported, encouraged and taught in a fun and loving environment. Their organization, communication and thoughtful details are fantastic. I can't recommend them enough!! We love PAA!
★Angie WaplesStaff was unwilling to be flexible and refund us during auditions - our daughter was anxious and intimidated. They took our deposit as well as money for future camp that we withdrew from. Unless your child is seasoned and experienced in theater I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND! All staff was unwilling to budge and will take future payment after we withdrew. We politely asked for flexibility several times but everyone refused including the director
★★★★★Gail AbernathyPAA is a great place for kids interested in performing arts! My 4th and 5th grade girls had a great time rehearsing for and performing in Matilda in the ensemble! Great teachers, caring adults, wonderful experience!
★★★★★Susan GrossWe have had nothing but positive experiences with PAA! Our family has participated in four shows now, and each one is better than the last. Our daughter has absolutely loved her experiences — the directors and staff are encouraging, professional, and truly invested in each student. We are so grateful for the time, dedication, and heart they pour into their productions. Our daughter has gained skills she will use both on and off the stage. Highly recommend PAA!
