What people say about us

My son Ace has been attending Starlettes since he was young. When he started he was extremely shy. Now a teenager he has grown into a confident young man, on and off stage. He has made many friends and had a blast. I credit Starlettes and Ale’s creative mind for many years of happiness in theatre.

Shannon Hurman

I would like to thank Alessandra for the amazing work she has done staging multiple plays.  Most importantly, you have given Jackson confidence he would not have had for public speaking if you hadn’t taught him.  I will be forever grateful.

Teresa Brodie

Thank you Alessandra.  Your plays are brilliant and such good engagement for our kids.

Natalie Schipp

My daughter Jazz scored the highest in her class in the Public Speaking competition at school with 91/100. It is the first year she has had outstanding voice control (reaches the back of the room), great variance in tone, movement and the self-confidence to really perform. Both her classmates and her teacher were very shocked with her performance of the speech, as she is usually very quiet. We believe her performance was a direct result from her acting classes with Starlettes. We would like to thank Ale for teaching Jazz this life skill, which will be a valuable asset for her future.
Storm Townsend

Thank you, Alessandra.  You do an amazing job!!  I was blown away (again) by the talent of these young children.  The improvements continue due to your patience, direction, diligence and determination.  Well done!!

Tara Foster

Ale is the greatest, most patient and multi-talented teacher! Great fun!

I went to Ocean Shores Public School to watch my granddaughter Anastasia perform in her School Gala night. She was the narrator of the event and she did a fantastic job, knew her lines, was very natural, projected her voice and I could understand every word (even from the back of a large auditorium). I want to thank you Ale for your theatre classes and that your teaching has other rewards for students. I’m so proud of her. Thank you Ale.
Sandy Clark

What an incredible year of fun. For myself the adult classes have bought so much joy to Monday evenings and the children’s classes have built my daughters confidence up so much. This year was their first year in and they both represented their school in public speaking completions and did very well.

So much fun and so many benefits. Not to mention the friendships that have formed for us all. I love everything about this humble community theatre. Thank you Starlettes for bringing so much fun to our lives.

I love going to Starlettes dance classes every week. I really miss it if I can’t make a class. It makes me happy, I feel great about exercising regularly while I’m having fun with a group of friendly people with the same love for dancing and performing. When we perform a concert I am always amazed at how great everything comes together. Ale’s passion for dance and theatre really creates another world for the audience to escape to right here in the town of Pottsville!
Rachel Spence

I have known Ale nearly as long as she has lived in Pottsville. Her passionate and positive approach to life has seen her excel in all her creative talents. Ale inspires Starlettes into dancing and preforming an excellent stage production. I have really enjoyed every entertaining concert I have been to and to be able to attend such a quality performance here in Pottsville is amazing!

My daughter started Starlettes last year. She had so much fun. This year I had my first dance class in my life with Starlettes. Have to agree it’s full of laughter and fun!!! Ale is such a wonderful teacher. So patient and kind with a ‘non-dancer’! I love it.
Melissa Cowin

This was our first year with Starlettes. My daughter began as a very quiet, timid and shy girl, then as the year progress her confidence grew, she was always practicing her lines and dancing around the house.

The end of year concert was so wonderful, the girls did a spectacular job and were all having so much fun. Thank you Alessandra.

We can’t wait for next year.

Emma Rose

I have been dancing with Starlettes for over 6 years now. I look forward to class every week and love how dance makes me feel inspired and alive. Ale has a wonderful way of making you feel like anything is possible, even if you think you can’t dance. It is the one night a week where I feel free to express myself and connect with my inner child. The ladies that this class attracts truly are amazing.
Steph Banks

I danced with Starlettes for 5 years and loved every minute of it!! Ale is the most motivating and inspiring dance teacher I have ever met!! Dancing with the Starlettes is more than just your regular dance class, you always finish the class feeling positive and inspired!!
