	“The actors do a terrific job at getting the children's attention and having them interact throughout the play. A few of them were so involved that they were actually interjecting lines on their own! The costumes and set gave a "feel" for the story but also left room for the children to use their imagination. They could certainly identify with the themes of "princesses" and "genies."

	“An absolutely great program for children's active participation in dramatic play and storytelling. The children were attentive, excited, and very interested.”
