Reviews
“I've seen musicals in New York and London and this was just as good as Broadway and the West End! I can’t believe that this was a middle school musical!” - Parent
Hannah, Congratulations! The musical was spectacular, a year of hard work definitely paid off. The choreography was superbly done and executed by the well selected talented students and ensemble of the Wushu warriors. This was a great touch! You made it very colorful and fun to watch. I just love and enjoy it very much!! - Natalia (Admission Officer)
Hannah I wanted to tell you that your show last night was hands down THE BEST student show I have seen in my 11 years as an educator. Bravo, my friend-Well done! I'm jazzed I get to see it again tomorrow. – KRISTA
Hannah,
I would like to add my thoughts and accolades to what I am sure are already a slew of congrats. I thought that Mulan was one of the best performances I have ever seen here at ISB. The students had energy in abundance and really came forward for the performance. It was truly a spectacle worth all the time and effort. I can hardly wait to see what you do next year.
Please congratulate your technical crew and actors for a production that was truly fantastic. I have recommended it to everyone I know and hope that your Friday and Saturday performances are packed to capacity. - Harold (Teacher and Actor)
Thank you Hannah! We are a great team and you are an amazing director! I am very proud to be part of it.- Hway (Choreographer)
To say this is one of my highlights of the year is an understatement. This is a milestone and I hope it's just the start. Thanks Hannah for finally bringing us together. - Tony (Wushu Master)
It was awesome, Hannah! Such talented kids, beautiful constumes and sets, it was wonderful. Henry's eyes were glued to the stage the ENTIRE time. I've never seen him so engaged in anything for so long. Afterwards he said, "mom, I really loved that!" Well done and congratulations! - Kirsten
Hi Hannah,
All the visiting schools so enjoyed watching Mulan Jr.! One of the schools even post a blog on their school social media to express how amazing the experience is! Thank YOU and every member of the team to put the performance together.
It was one of the best moments in all the years that I have been here at ISB! - Annie (Chinese Integration Officer)
