Reviews and Feedback

  • "This was one of the funniest plays I've ever seen. Every one of the actors were so good. . . .Take your kids or grandkids to see Miss Nelson is Missing! I promise you will love it and so will they! The production was really cute and they had our attention the entire time. 5 stars for sure! The theater, the set, and the actors were fantastic! It was a great, cool way to spend a hot Texas afternoon! "

  • "Director Charlotte Taylor has put together a really fun, energetic show and, judging by the reactions of the many children in the audience, has a successful hit on her hands. The adults in the audience also seemed to enjoy themselves. I know my friends and I laughed out loud and often!"
