I wanted you to know that TIGER gave an awesome performance at our school. It was amazing! I can't get over the timing. We had the performance of Brand New Day set for Thursday morning, not knowing that we would have a tragic loss of a student due to a house fire. The funeral was Tuesday, and we had a school candlelight vigil Wednesday evening. So, TIGER coming to us the morning after the vigil with their message of resilience filled an important need for both school and staff. Our student was named after a celestial event, so our vigil included verses about stars and going outside to see the stars. Well, didn't TIGER end their performance with these words: "A bright shining star, you can go far..." Oh, my...!! Betty Mulrey Director of Curriculum and Instruction Gate City Charter School for the Arts Merrimack, NH I have to tell you, I got an overwhelming positive response from both students and staff about TIGER. I had trouble getting kids to leave the gym because they wanted to know when the TIGERS would be back. Everyone was coming up to me telling me how wonderful it was, and how well the message fits into our already existing "shared values" curriculum. In fact, we decided to add “resilience” to our “shared values” after seeing the assembly. It was extremely well received, and we look forward to having you again! Thanks! Ashley McCormack, Title 1 Woodsville Elementary Woodsville, NH This was the BEST TIGER show ever! I heard students repeating some of the words to the songs after the show. I also had a second grader who wanted to practice problem solving as demonstrated in the TIGER student workshops. That is exactly what we want to see and hear about after an assembly!

I wanted you to know that TIGER gave an awesome

performance at our school. It was amazing!I can't get over the timing. We had the performance of

Brand New Day set for Thursday morning, not knowing that

we would have a tragic loss of a student due to a house fire.

The funeral was Tuesday, and we had a school candlelight

vigil Wednesday evening. So, TIGER coming to us the morning

after the vigil with their message of resilience filled an

important need for both school and staff. Our student was

named after a celestial event, so our vigil included verses

about stars and going outside to see the stars. Well,

didn't TIGER end their performance with these words:

"A bright shining star, you can go far..." Oh, my...!! Betty Mulrey Director of Curriculum and Instruction

I have to tell you, I got an overwhelming

positive response from both students and

staff about TIGER. I had trouble getting

kids to leave the gym because they wanted

to know when the TIGERS would be

back. Everyone was coming up to me telling

me how wonderful it was, and how well

the message fits into our already existing

"shared values" curriculum. In fact, we

decided to add “resilience” to our “shared

values” after seeing the assembly. It was

extremely well received, and we look

forward to having you again! Thanks!

This year's TIGER performanceand workshops were wonderful! As I walked

through the halls I heard comments like, "This year'sTIGER performance was awesome! I liked it even

more than last year's!" Thank you so muchfor coming to our school!

Mary Jo Greene, Art TeacherWoodland Community SchoolBethlehem, NH

I was so impressed, not only byhow talented the cast was, but also with how to

the point and well said the content was. Those were allsuch important messages for our students to hear. The actors brought so much life to those important

words, it was exciting, energetic,and so much fun!

I was able to see the TIGER performance, and it was so so good! I think the reactions of the students really said it all, too. After seeing many TIGER performances as younger students, I think the middle school students loved that Bystander: A Portrait in Apathy was totally geared toward their current social concerns.
