Testimonials

The following are excerpts from letters received regarding the performance "A Plea for Tolerance - Lessons in Freedom".

"As Americans from the South, we have grappled with these issues in the eyes of the nation and because of our history, we have worked diligently to eliminate prejudices and misunderstanding. What we offer with this tribute is a celebration of our nation's diversity and of the painstaking lessons in freedom that are our history as a nation". Richard Shelby, U. S. Senator; Jeff Sessions, U.S. Senator; Sonny Callahan , U. S. Representative; Michael C. Dow, Mayor of Mobile

 

"On behalf of the entire Frank Sinatra School of the Arts family, I wish to take the opportunity to express our warmest thanks for the excellent dance presentation you gave on September 11 to commemorate the tragic events that took place on this date last year. The performance was well received by our students. They gained some important insights into the nature of tragic events such as "9/11" and the Holocaust. We extend our sincere appreciation for your wonderful performance". Elliot Salow , Principal, Frank Sinatra School of the Arts

 

"In these days of turmoil, a production of this kind is critical to reaffirm and remind us of these freedoms which are so precious to Americans". Sharon J. Peek , Librarian, Foley High School

 

"The entire performance was extremely moving. It inspired me to be more tolerant of people different from myself". Shelley King , Student, Foley High School

 

"Today I saw a very emotional, beautiful performance by the Alabama Contemporary Dance Company. They were so great! There was so much meaning in their dances. As a dancer myself, I hope I can grow to be like the dancers from Alabama . I think that they made September 11 a much better day for all of us .I was nervous to come to school today but I am so glad that I did. The dancers from Alabama made my day and I thank them so much". Danielle Farrelly , Student, Frank Sinatra High School for the Arts
