What Everyone is Saying about Heights Youth Theatre

Children of Eden:

"I can't say enough how GREAT the show was. Having never seen COE, I didn't know what to expect. Boy was I blown away!"

"I was extremely gratified to see Children of Eden today. It was nothing short of spectacular--truly a feast for the senses, the intellect, and the heart. We are so proud of this stunning production!"

"I was in the Ladies room at Intermission and one lady said to her friend, "wow, I am so choked up, what an emotional show"

Wizard of Oz:

Looking forward to seeing the show again, we saw both Friday and Saturday shows, FANTASTIC!
– Kate Bradley

The show was great! The leads are going to be stars!!!!! Seeing my daughter on stage was magical!
– Christy Good

Good morning, I just had to take a moment to say how very proud I am to be a part of this wonderful theatre! The Wizard of Oz is an extraordinary production. A very ambitious undertaking that truly paid off! The costumes were unbelievable, the set and special effects - absolutely amazing, the orchestra played beautifully, and what a talented cast! And the black and white transformation to color was brilliant!!!
– Gina

It's a great show, and you and all the volunteers do a fantastic job. I don't know how you pull this off three times a year!
– Amy Shorey

The show was amazing-every bit of it. All of those children did a fantastic job!!
– Jodi

Congratulations to Nathan on his directing of the Wizard of OZ – the scenery and the orchestra were outstanding - on night 2 you could tell that he saw the flaws and fixed them accordingly - he did a really great job and of course the kids did well too.
– Jamie

We really loved the show last weekend, and truly appreciate the behind the scenes professionalism that has helped make it happen.
– Dan Mesh

My parents said this was THE BEST show in terms of overall cast, sound, production...they have EVER seen for a children's troupe! We have also adored the director - he is magical with the children.
– Jamie Cole

I have taken my children to HYT productions over the years and this one was the best by far. Our family lives in Cleveland Heights and I am so glad that such high-caliber children's theater is close by. Please commend Nathaniel Motta and thank him for all of his hard work. It was a pleasure to attend. Sincerely,
– Theresa Eke

Oliver:

I wanted to tell you how impressed I am with your organization. My daughters...were all involved in “Oliver”, and it was such an enjoyable experience from start to finish. I appreciate all of the enthusiasm, hard work, organization, experience and kindness that all of your staff brought to the production. And on top of that, it was a fantastic, high quality show--well done!
– Jenny Coyle

Godspell:

First, let me say what an amazing production Godspell was. We are new to the area and my 6 year old daughter & I went on a whim -- just looking for something to do on a Saturday afternoon. My daughter was riveted & I was moved to tears -- both by the timely subject matter & the talent of these young people. I left with such hope for the future, something none too easy to come by these days.
– Andrea Landow

Footloose:

Thank you for including me. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting such a talented and personable group of students and adults and I had a blast! As someone who has not (obviously) been in that setting before, I was amazed at what I learned about the process of putting together such a quality production. You may certainly consider me for some cameos in the future!
– Steve Hopkins

Fiddler on the Roof:

I want to thank you for allowing my daughter to be a part of your performances. I just returned from a year and a half deployment to Iraq and Afghanistan. I don’t think you have any idea what void your rehearsals and your performances filled for my daughter. I realize she didn’t have a major part in Wizard of Oz or Fiddler on the Roof but I think both proved to be major parts in our lives as they distracted all of the family away from my absence.
