Review for Autism Community Theatre Inc, New York, NY, USA
My son has been part of ACT for 7 years now and he loves it! He enjoys exploring his imagination and acting. ACT's teaching staff is a group of volunteers that genuinely love bringing theatre to others.
Because of this, my son has become more verbal, a better listener and more confident. Bravo to founder, Gina DeMetrius for continuously providing a creative outlet for a population that is often forgotten.

What a terrific little theatre company this is. My son has been a part of ACT for 5 years. He loves it. All the actors and actresses are on the spectrum and are all included regardless of where they fall on the spectrum.
My son has come out of his shell, has made friends and most importantly is having fun!
The parents are also wonderful!!!
Gina DeMetrius, the ACT Director, encourages everyone and meets them at their level. If you're thinking of signing up, do not hesitate. You will not be sorry. A wonderful experience for both participant and parent.

ACT gets better each year and my son enjoys it more each year! Each actor is allowed to explore and express at their own rate while still being an active member of this exceptional little theatre company. My son looks forward to going each Saturday. He has made friends and it has also allowed me to connect with other parents. Founder, Gina DeMetrius is a star!!!!

My son LOVES participating in ACT! In the 3 years that he's been involved, he has gained confidence and even made friends. He's even written a skit for the group. I'm most appreciative of the warm, friendly, creative and supportive environment that ACT provides. Gina DeMetrius works tirelessly to include all, not something that we found in other activities. ACTs year-end performance is fun and my son is always excited to strut his stuff onstage!
