"I want to write you a note and let you know how thrilled I am with how my children have grown as a result of their summer with Rocky Mountain Theatre for Kids. My younger daughter, Dasha, has blossomed into a wonderful little actress. I remember some years ago watching her in a school play. All she could do was stand on stage and chew on her fingers. Watching her now is a delight. She stands up in front of a group of people and speaks with real authority in her voice. And that's not just on stage. Some weeks back she had a number of friends spending the night and they all wanted to watch a movie. She convinced them that it would be more fun to make their own play. They all agreed. Those girls wrote and produced their own little play instead of watching television. I was so proud of my daughter's skill and leadership in getting the other kids to do something creative. Thank you again for providing the best summer experience for our kids. The positive impact of Rocky Mountain Theatre for Kids reveals itself continuously."
-Dan Cogswell, Advisory Engineer, IBM Corporation and parent of 8 year old student-


Students

"I love that RMTK gives me the freedom to explore my talents on stage... to act, dance, and more. Instead of forcing a face onto my character, my character becomes me through who I am and how I relate to him or her. RMTK really values what I contribute to my parts."
-Kyra Templewood, 14 (student actress)-

"I like the environment that RMTK creates, because the focus is not on getting the biggest part, but rather on making the part unique to the individual. Even the small parts are great."
-Melanie Kronenberg, 13 (student actress)-

"One of RMTK's goals is to 'challenge the idea of what children's theatre is.' They try to do that by bringing artistic and cultural diversity to the troupe's productions."
