Parker Arts Academy Reviews

   Easy to navigate

     The Parker-Arts website worked well and I didn’t experience any issues.

    Parker-Arts High School keeps knocking it out of the ballpark! The talent their is overflowing! Keep up the great work!

   Great show

   The show was great but it was a little long in my opinion

   The show was great. Will be back. Such talent

   The show was great. Cast was wonderful. However, the director really needs to learn theater etiquette. He was sitting behind me, calling and yelling at the most unnecessary times. It’s really disrespectful. I understand the pride in his work, but he really needs to work on when and when not to clap, and yell. It’s good ne

   was amazing the performers here graat

   Amazing show!! The girl who played Ariel was absolutely Broadway quality. The Parker Arts program is a hidden gem in southern Wisconsin. They have far and away the best high school talent; and the direction, tech, music and choreography take full advantage of the gifts these kids have been given.

 Could barely understand the dialogue. It sounded garbled. Though, the singing was clear.

   Wonderful show, kids are awesome.

   Amazing talent… like no other high school performance I’ve ever seen. From the lighting, sound to the costumes to the acting, choreography and amazing voices…top notch. Ursula’s performance was exceptionally note worthy . Her make up was stunning. I would be surprised if she is not famous someday.

  Such incredible talent. The kids did a great job of capturing the fun spirit of the Little Mermaid.

   Beautiful costumes, singing and dancing! A great show

     Loved it, we are hooked. Already planning to come to little mermaid.

   Shrek the musical was awesome! The costumes, singing, dancing, speaking parts, it was amazing! The students are so talented and I really enjoyed this show.

   It was so much fun. Everyone was amazing.

 Shriek The Musical was excellent! The lead characters of Shrek, Fiona, and Donkey stole my heart with their acting, singing, and comedy. This show made me laugh and cry.

   We absolutely LOVED it! The students are amazing. It’s hard to believe they’re high school students! We did feel badly that Donkey did not get a special recognition after her song and dance she did. If you can give her our praise we would appreciate it! We felt badly that we had to leave as soon as the performance ended and couldn’t stay for the accolades. We had a dinner reservation.

   It was a great performance and the kids are so talented!

   Absolutely amazing from start to finish! WOW!

      This show was amazing! Loved the set and Costumes. The talent among the students, especially Fiona and Shrek, blew me away! Well Done!

 The show was so entertaining and it was heart-warming to see the performers have so much fun together, especially knowing it was the last show of their high school career, for many of them. There were some microphone issues, and it can be hard to hear some of the dialogue/lyrics with students who are not as confident in projecting (my mom and I can't hear well anyways, so they could scream the words and we still might not be able to hear), but overall very beautiful show!!!

   It was fun show, loved the music and dancing. A lot of talent at Parker. The students work hard. The sets were beautiful also. It was a full house last night and that was wonderful.

   Amazing.

   Such great talent!!! Absolutely love it!!!!

   I loved it! Everyone made it an extremely fun-filled show. It was laugh-out- loud awesome! Congratulations to the cast and director.

   Amazing. Enjoyed it very much

   The show was really entertaining. The choreography was excellent; The set was amazing. The costumes were spot on. The actors did an amazing job, however, some of the pitches were so high until they became a distraction at times.

   Sets costumes and make up were amazing! Such talent in Janesville.

   As always, the costumes, sets and performers never disappoint!! Another great show in the books!!

     Such a wonderful show! Everyone involved in the show did a fantastic job and it was hillarious. Definitely the most I have ever laughed during a show.

   It was amazing. So much talent.

   Amazing costumes , set, talent and energy! Parker musicals always blow me away. And it was hilarious !!!

   The cast was absolutely AMAZING. They are all so talented it's crazy.

   Loved it!!! Fabulous costumes, makeup, singing, dancing and vocals! The backdrop was awesome too! What a wonderful job these Parker students do. Amazing.

   The show was great! It was very disappointing seeing staff of the show reserving entire rows (with programs, not reserved signs) for people who showed up 5 minute prior to the start of the show. It caused a lot of confusion for other guests looking for seats and is quite disrespectful to those patrons who showed up early to find seats.

   Enjoy this program with my G daughter very talented goup and well presented

   It was a very good show. Shrek was a favorite when I was young, so this really was an enjoyable show. I must say the people who played Donkey and Pinocchio are amazing, some of the best humor body movement and poses. Would

   The show was good. It's clear how much work the kids put in.

   Fun show! Congrats!

   It was a great show. Lots of talented actors, dancers, and vocalists.

   So much fun! Great singing ...Costumes were intricate and beautiful. Specia kudos to Donkey on Opening Night. We really enjoyed all the creative improvisations and restlessness portrayed, especially when the other characters had center stage scenes.

   I wish there were still programs left on Sunday and more merchandise!

   I was completely blown away by the performance. They did a great job

   Loved it! Went with friends!

     This performance was amazing. Thank you.

   The cast evoked tears and laughter.

  Great performance!!

   Great show and very enjoyable!

   What a wonderful performance! We will be coming to see more in the future for sure. The cast and set were amazing. Wonderful job kids!!!!

   So professionally performed. Grat story.

   Very good

  What an amazing performance! I would have never guessed these were high schoolers putting on a play written by a local playwright. Their singing and acting were superb, the set was magical, and the musical itself should be touring nationally. Bravo!

   It was incredible. So hard to believe these are high school kids. This is as good or better than the Fireside in Fort Atkinson. Amazing.

   It was a great story and well played

   Super!!!!!.

   Great show and it was also unique to see how Scrooge became the mean miser of an old man that he was. This kids as always put on a great performance.

 We really enjoyed the entire production. We know Jim Lyke and have always liked his work. The original story line filled in a lot of the blanks in "what happened in Scrooge's life to make him the way he was, before the ghosts. We have been following Lucy Natale's career on stage since we saw her as Annie many years ago in Fort Atkinson. The original music was also wonderful. We enjoyed the "talk back" session after the show. I can see this going to Broadway in the future.

   Seat could be a little more comfortable though

   Amazing! Excited to see where this show goes in the future.

   The scenery, dancing, singing and acting were awesome! Very creative and very entertaining.

   love, Love, LOVED it. Its amazing how talented everyone was!

   Excellent!

 The performance was fantastic! The students have more talent than their age would suggest. It was really fun hearing the creative geniuses speak afterwards Bravo!

 It was incredible seeing the magic take place. I'm so glad our community has this resource for students.

   It was an amazing show and the kids did an amazing job!!

   Scrooge -last Friday night-has an unbelievable voice and stage presence

   Amazing

     Overall it was a pleasant experience. There was some sort of mic issue with Crachett from the upper levels, he was 90% inaudible. Scrooge did an excellent job, Belle, too. I enjoyed having the three ghosts condensed into one song. I wish most of the songs were as storytelling and long as this one. The ensemble sang excellent but their dancing was okay: the weak ones needed to spruce up their choreography and one particular young lady needs to tone it down - too showy!

   LOVE IT!!! Amazed at the talent of the high schoolers!

   The show was great!! Vocals were amazing, set was beautiful! The only thing that bothered me, Belle’s costumes… not time period appropriate, the red dress was the only thing that was close to being accurate. As the lead, I expected something better. That shorter dress that looked like the 1920-30’s, doesn’t work for this performance. Sorry, work on the timeline and fashion etiquette for costuming.

   A wonderful night of theatre! Music and Story were amazing! So impressed with the entire cast. For the premier of a completely new show, things were amazingly "tight". Kudos to the writer, director, set designers, costume designers, and choreographers on a great look and feel. All in all, I can't think of a better way to get into the spirit of Christmas. Thanks to you all!

   The show was fantastic! This is an extremely talented cast and crew.

   I loved it What a great way to spend an afternoon watching a play during the holidays.

   Very well put together and the performance from all the actors was amazing

   Wonderful!!!!

   The show was amazing

     Awesome performers, very professionally done. Scrooge was especially good.

  Very entertaining with a great story and Amazing cast! Janesville’s Got Talent!

   Excellent job. Quality work across the board. Can’t say enough good about this performance.

   Very good singing, all the leads had great voices! Nice dance choreography!! Costumes were beautiful!! Liked the new story on how Scrooge came to be!!

   Fantastic! Awesome! Broadway Bound!! What an incredibly talented group of people from the creators of the show to the students!

   It was super good!! The kids did such a good job. They sang with little to no hiccups. The set design is incredible, could feel like I was in the show, and on the set.

   great!!

     5 stars. Excellent.

   It was hard to hear & understand what was being said; microphones need to be louder.

   Really well done! Fun performance and dazzling set and costumes.

   It was an incredible show!

   The cast did an amazing job! I enjoyed the show from the beginning to the end!

   So impressed with the cast and choreography! Very well done! We really enjoyed the show!

  Very impressed by the talent of these kids!
