Testimonials 2019
I have watched my daughter grow as an actor over the years under Miss Sarah's guidance. And I am simply amazed by how far she has come! WAS is a place she loves to go and always feels welcomed and challenged! It is also a wonderfully supportive and loving (and fun!) environment that encourages confidence and trust. Each year we look forward to the incredible productions that Miss Sarah and her fabulous team put on. And this year is no exception: High School Musical! My daughter is lucky to have found her acting home and Miss Sarah.

Our son, Alex, has been with the WAS for the past year. His experiences have brought such joy and excitement to him and our family. Like all good schools, the hidden lessons taught by Sarah and her staff are so valuable. In addition to learning and improving their crafts, the accountability, cooperation, socialization, listening, confidence, and responsibility learned provide tools for long-term success and happiness on and off the stage. Our son struggles with speech and in a short time he went form a boy too self-conscious to order in a restaurant to confident enough to speak and perform on stage. We are very proud and thankful to Sarah and WAS.

After performing in his elementary school's talent show (and finding his passion), my son asked me to find a music school where he can practice songs, dress up in costumes, and perform for a big audience. After asking around, a fellow elementary school parent recommended Wexford Acting School. We inquired and tried it out. 15 months later, my son now has one musical and two showcases under his belt. He loves everything about it: the singing, the dancing, the instructors, and especially his cast mates. He has been taught teamwork, discipline, the importance of practice/rehearsal, the acceptance of criticism, and the benefits of exercise, all while doing something he truly enjoys. From last year's showcase to this year's, we have marveled in his growth. Thank you, Wexford Acting Studio, for supporting my budding singer, dancer, actor, songwriter extraordinaire!

I've had the pleasure of being a student of Ms. Sarah's since I was six years old. The instruction at Wexford Acting Studio is a unique blend of professionalism and imagination, all in an inclusive, positive, and supportive environment where individuality is embraced. Wexford Acting Studio fostered my love of performing and creativity at a young age, and gave me all the tools I needed to pursue the arts at a competitive, collegiate level. I am so grateful to Miss Sarah, for developing my skills as an artist, and instilling in me the values of humility and hard work. I'll miss the studio very much next year as I head to pursue my BFA in Music Theatre at Elon University!

This studio has welcomed my child with open arms. I can't say enough about how my son has grown this year. His confidence has increased, his performance in front of people has improved and he loves being in class and on stage with his friends. If you are looking for a fun program, one in which your child will thrive, Wexford Acting Studio is the program you should enroll your child in.

My daughter has been attending Wexford Acting Studio for almost a year, and I can't say enough positive things about the studio and Miss Sarah! She was previously somewhere that was not so positive, and after making the switch, I can see such a change in her and her confidence level. Sarah takes the time to really get to know each child, and to know their strengths, and value what they bring to the studio, on an individual basis. The night I picked her up from her first acting class, she commented that she learned more in one night than in all of her years of previous acting classes! The quality of the classes is amazing, and while the kids are learning, they are also having fun.
To be a part of Miss Sarah's showcases and shows is such a great opportunity and learning experience, not to mention, a lot of fun!! The kids and the directors put in hours and hours of hard work, all while loving every minute of what they are doing.
Additionally, she has made some of her best friends at WAS. The kids were accepting of her from the very beginning, and she has formed life-long friendships.
I would highly recommend WAS!
