Review for Fort Lauderdale Children's Theatre, Ft Lauderdale, FL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I began as a parent at this organization about 10 years ago when my eldest son was having problems with bullies at school. He hated sports and needed another outlet for his creative energy. I was so thankful to find FLCT all those years ago when I saw my son blossom before my eyes taking to the stage in wonderful productions and blowing everyone away with his improvisational comedic skills. He will be turning 21 soon, and is now the leader of the his University's improv and sketch comedy groups. My other 2 children have also thrived there as well. Our family has been so positively impacted by this organization that both my husband and myself have served on the Board of Trustees at one time or another to ensure that this wonderful Theater will continue to impact the lives of children far into the future.

Review for Fort Lauderdale Children's Theatre, Ft Lauderdale, FL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

My three children have "moved through the ranks" at FLCT, having participated both behind the scenes and on stage for many productions over the last six years. They had forged strong, lasting friendships. My oldest son, now in college, still stays in close contact with his FLCT family and even performs in "reunion shows" with other graduated students over school breaks. The positive experiences that my children have had here will last them a lifetime!

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

My children have all blossomed under the tutelage of FLCT, going from shy children to teenagers who have no problem with public speaking.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Give them a million dollars to build their own theater space!

Role:  Volunteer & As a parent, I have helped with costumes, scenery, concessions, and have served on the board of trustees.
