A large auditorium filled with red seats and a projector screen

My brother recently landed a feature role in an amateur theatre production of “Singing In The Rain”. Despite what the title infers - there is nothing amateur about it. Production value is high, and the acting takes you out of the auditorium and into your own magical sing-song world. Needless to say - a very proud brother right here.

Reviews

"During my time with Lisa I have observed her to be highly energetic, patient, tremendously skilled, and a true advocate of student success on stage. Her ability to interact with students is exceptional. She has a keen skill to motivate and inspire while challenging students to stretch their limits. In the end, her productions are professional, well organized, and well executed. She never tires and her efforts are endless."

Russ Wilson, Principal

"I cannot say enough in praise of her professional and personal attributes. Throughout the production, Lisa was cooperative, reliable, industrious, thorough, courteous and helpful. I found her choreography to be sensible, relevant, creative and well-planned. Lisa takes her responsibilities very seriously, and does an equally excellent job working with both groups and individuals. Moreover, she is a decent, caring and genuine person who worked exceedingly well with both the cast members and the production staff. One additional thing that made Lisa a joy to work with was her delightful sense of humor."

Ken Golner, Walpole Footlighters

"I can't recommend Lisa Kelleher enough as a ballet instructor. Lisa's dedication to proper form while having fun was a stand out. Under Lisa's graceful guidance, I was able to develop my talent enough perform with the University of Dayton and Smith College. More importantly, Lisa is an excellent role model. I had never met a woman with such wit, intellect, graciousness and strength. She inspired me and gave me the confidence to go to Smith College which ultimately put me on my life's path. Without her, I probably would not have gone to a high-quality college like Smith. More young woman should have the opportunity to grow under her."
