Testimonials
Happy people.
“The students are completely engaged in the performance. These real life scenarios are ones that they can relate to on a daily basis. The actors perform in a way that captures the attention of Elementary students and they do a wonderful job every year.”
Muse Elementary School
“The presentation was very appropriate for the current times and I believe it will have an impact on students. The Saltworks group is very good at delivering messages that are relevant, timely, and necessary for young people to hear over and over again.”
Principal, Burgettstown Junior Senior High School
“This was one of the best educational performances ever! My students were thoroughly entertained. Please keep West Mifflin in mind for future performances.”
“The students and staff loved the performance and I would highly recommend other schools to invite this company in for an assembly. The students benefit from the core values that are taught and the play helps in implementing character education.”
“The performance felt very real to watch which is important since middle school students struggle when something seems fake and childish. We really appreciated the talk afterward and wish we had more time!”
