"What a spectacular performance!! The kids had a great time, and I especially enjoyed how you engaged all of the audience, from the youngest kindergarteners to 8th graders to adults, teaching all of us Greek and sign language along with Greek mythology. You are an amazing storyteller and teacher, Leslie! Thank you so much for bringing your expertise, drama, and rich cultural experience to our children."
