Theatre of the Imagination

I was unsure after the first day, but, the Director reached out to us, and the second day was much better.

I was so excited to find out about this group. I however was appalled at how ridiculous the guy that runs this is. There was a lot of yelling from him and his wife at the children whose parents didn't stay all day. He didn't yell at those children whose parents were there. The children were bored because there was a lot of just standing around. I seen a little boy walk up to the owner and the staff at lunch time and tell him that his mom had not made him a lunch.The owner told him " well maybe she will come later" as he takes a mouthful of the pizza they ordered. Lunch time was almost over so we took care of this little guy. The owner teaches them nothing but a line or two for the play and where to run. There is no acting being done except when the owner performs in the end for the "show" for the parents. He has the audience laugh because he has the children say silly one liners. The parents then feel proud and and there kids feel elated because they performed and were applauded and as children do they go on.... meanwhile their parents never know this guy treated them like crap all day. This " actor" is scamming the Kansas City community by presenting himself as a teacher of theater. He is a glorified day care for the schools and parents that need to work on teacher work days etc.
