Parker Arts Academy Reviews

 Wonderful show. Amazing teenages definitely a 5star show

 Easy to navigate

 Greatest show. Cast was perfect, especially Sofie.

 It was nice

 It was hard to figure out how to get the tickets on my phone. There was no follow up email, either.

 Very easy

 It was very easy to purchase tickets. We live out of state, so this website was wonderful for us!

 Very easy!

 I was disappointed that my email, inquiring about an interperter, was answered so late. I could have arranged for an interperter myself but it was to late to find someone.

 Easy to use!

 It was one of the BEST shows I’ve ever seen! It’s amazing that these are high school students. Best $15 I’ve spent in a long time. BRAVO!!!!

 Very easy

 The children were amazing!!

 Amazing! I was very impressed with the talent, coordination, and use of stage. The props, the backdrops, everything!

 This show was so amazing! The dance number in Step in Time was phenomenal!!

 It was fantastic!!!!! Exceptionally and masterfully well done!!! Couldn’t have been any better. Such an amazing performance! My autistic son enjoyed every bit of it and handled it well. These kids are amazing that performed!

 Cast, crew and staff are absolutely amazing!

 Fabulous

 Absolutely beautiful show!!

 Great show. But I wish that you would have advertised which cast was doing what performances. I went to the wrong one. It was still really good, but I didn't see the person I was expecting to see.

 WOW! these aren't kids , their already better than many talented professionals , and you could just see their pride in performing ! a good time for us and them...

 Fabulous vocals, costumes and set. And love the amazing job Kayde Troia did as the stage director!

 Casting was great - loved the enthusiasm of the whole stage - no small parts or small players - wonderful choreography - sound was TOO LOUD - painfully so - please check the decibels and you’ll see that you are damaging everyone’s ears - and the show was much too long - you can cut a verse or a chorus now and then - especially with the unfamiliar songs - it’s very hard for the young ones to stay with it.

 You could feel the energy of the audience because there was such a great level of talent. So fun!

 Awesome!!!

 Awesome,uplifting!

 Hard to believe I was watching a production by high school students. Very professional.

 Fabulous sow - so much talent!

 Very entertaining

 The kids put on a wonderful show. Many talented individuals and a great mix of singing, dancing and humor. Well done!

 An incredibly talented cast of young people did a fantastic job! My husband and I loved the play!!

 I was impressive!! Everyone did such a great job!

 Loved the show. Very well done production

 Full disclosure, Greta Schuler is my great niece, she was absolutely amazing and the entire cast was so talented and fun to watch!

 Great show; loads of talented students are ready to entertain everyone at the next show. Don’t miss this show, it’s worth every penny spent!. Vern M. Janesville

 loved the show.. great voices. The fates had fantastic harmonizing

 The talent was incredible as were the sets and costumes. I felt some scenes/numbers dragged and made the show longer than it needed to be.

 Brilliant set design and costumes.. spot on for steampunk. The cast was terrific, the singing and dancing was a joy to hear and see. We thoroughly enjoyed it. Kudos to the director, scenic designer, costumes, hair and makeup!

 Didn't really understand it.

 This is high school?!?! Everything about the show (talent, set design, production, costumes, sound, etc) was outstanding!

 Gosh guys, you always put on an amazing show! I wish our sets were 1/2 as cool when I was in HS. You all are going places; be proud of yourselves!!!

 Very dark show. Women in the cast as well as the worker dancers were excellent.

 Amazing!! Costumes, vocals, set design, dancing, choreography and orchestra was Broadway quality! Parker Arts Academy does such a wonderful job with their productions. So happy they are part of our community!

 Amazing! I was mesmerized the entire time! What a story! What talent!

 Such talented professional young people! The choreography and set were fantastic. Many thanks also to the quality of the pit musicians. A wonderful performance.

 Energy and message get high scores. The set was fantastic. The pit orchestra was wonderful.

 Great show. So much talent!!!

 The is the first show I’ve been to at this theater. I’m so glad I came. The talent and dedication to their craft is immediately evident. I enjoyed every minute. It was unfortunate that there were some microphone issues but the actors weren’t fazed. The production was an absolute wonder to witness. To Orpheus/Reggie- I saw Reeve Carney in New York as Orpheus and your emotional intensity was far more beautiful - thank you for a performance I’ll never f

 Those kids are talented and can tell they are enjoying what they are doing. Great show, honestly better than some professional performances we have seen!! Will be back for more!

 So so good! Loved it so much had to go back second time.

 The Fates were in perfect harmony. Amazing! Overall the show was fantastic. I wish Orpheus’ mic was a little louder. This is one of the most technically difficult shows I have seen at Parker in a long time. So much going on at the same time that it was difficult to know what to watch when (but not in a bad way!) I may have to see it again just to see what I missed the first time :) Bravo!

 Wow! This show was a standout! The singing and dancing was outstanding! I also loved the band! Great job by everyone involved!

 Wow!!!! Absolutely phenomenal! I cannot believe this was a high school performance. The students’ portrayal of each character through their acting, singing, and dancing was powerful and moving. They drew me into this story, and left me wanting more. The set, costumes, hair, and makeup were stunning and breathtaking. Hadestown is a must-see show! Congratulations staff and students on creating an unforgettable experience!!!

 Parker Arts needs to recruit some male talent to rival the extremely talented females!

 Incredible. The students' dedication to the work is unbelievable! I forgot I was watching high schoolers for a moment- they had the audience totally engrossed. Flawless. We loved seeing Reggie in the spotlight- they are remarkable and we cannot wait to see them again and again on that stage.

 Awesome!!!

 The entire cast and crew are professional level performers. Ensemble, harmonies and choreography were flawless. Multiple hair raising reactions were had to this beautiful performance. WOW

 The talent is phenomenal! Crazy this is high school!

 Great show

 Ariel and cast was amazing!

 The show was wonderful. Right up there with a Fireside Theater production!! Such talent! Really enjoyed the show!

 Awesome show!!

 was amazing the performers here graat

 Fabulous costumes! The wigs and make up were spectacular! Loved the sets with the images on the screen! The cast was so enthusiastic that the singing got a little screechy but very forgivable when students are giving their ALL The choreography was splendid especially the tap dancing, the full stage movement with the ship and the storm at sea. Loved the little row boat and the outrageous Ursula costume. Best was the silly scene with the chef who totally stole the show! Bravo!

 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.

 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.

 Loved the show brought my 2 granddaughters they talked nonstop all way home fell asleep singing the songs.

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

 Excellent!!

 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!

 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.

 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

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

 Was amazing!

 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 an excellent play. The performance by all characters was outstanding for a high school play.

 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.

 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.

 It was such a fun show! Each and every character in this show was spot on!

 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.
