Great Big Theatre Company Toronto / North York

Children learned very little from their classes here. The final presentation to parents was pathetic. Waste of time, energy and money with the outcome of children disliking drama. I am speaking from the perspective of someone who have taken drama classes and acted on stage and in film. In response the company's response below. I did speak to the instructor about my dissatisfaction midway through the course, and recommended ways to engage children. For instance, instead of having the instructor read a super long story with the children saying mostly one-word \No\ here and there sporadically, they could have the children create any story -- a story that doesn't have to make sense -- and act it out. The instructor said that she had to follow the instructions given to her, and asked me to message the owner of the company. The instructor didn't say anything about refund. My children and I made the best out of the situation we were in.
