"We were thrilled with how quickly the kids learned the songs. Congratulations on a great service. You are truly talented and generous with your music, lyrics and drams. Thanks so much."

"My students LOVED Bullies Anonymous! I approached and practiced it as suggested in the script and it worked wonderfully. The students liked every song and, much to my disbelief, there was a part that fit each of my students' likes! I chose this play because we've had lots of bullying issues, so I thought there would be a fight over parts. But they impressed me!"

---Lara Haley, Teacher, 5th grade, Mantee Bay Elementary, Weston, FL

"My co-teacher and I have done a Bad Wolf Press play every year for the last four years. They all have been great. This year we had students performing Bullies Anonymous. We especially loved the musical numbers, simple costuming, and especially the minimal props for staging. (This year we had one of our board members attending. He was very impressed.)" --Cori Hoverter, Teacher, 3rd grade, Monticello School, Tracy, CA

"I got Bullies Anonymous this year. Last year we did Character Matters---that show taught the lessons with wit and an obvious tone of what is right. Bullies Anonymous seemed to be written from the view of the bully with the intent (I think) to show that they weren't cool but the songs seemed to emphasize them rather than what kids can do to stop a bully or help themselves. My kids aren't that great at inferring, yet. I love the wit in the others and felt Bullies Anonymous was lacking a bit. You have a tough job and do a fantastic job--- I salute you!"

---Jennifer Ware, Teacher, 4th grade, Liberty School, Chula Vista, CA (Note from Ron: Jennifer is absolutely correct that the show is from the bully's point of view. We worked hard to make them look rather pathetic and sad. It might be good to clue your audience on what to expect. I saw a performance where the teacher came out and spoke to the audience before the play, explaining that his class were going to play bullies, but actually they were all really nice kids. And then he mentioned that the play tells us a lot about bullies and how we should handle it. The whole talk took less than a minute.)

"My students LOVED Bullies Anonymous! The students liked every song and, much to my disbelief, there was a part that fit each of my students' likes! I chose this play because we've had lots of bullying issues. The students did a fantastic job working together. The performances for he parents and the other classes went so well I swear they could have taken it on the road! I was so impressed by them! They were ad-libbing, did little bullying vignettes that went with the songs, and choreographed dances for most the numbers." --Lara Haleyr, Teacher, (4th grade, gifted/high achievers) Manatee Bay Elementary, Weston, FL

"Everyone loved the play and the message it conveys! Thanks for making productions fun and affordable for us in these tough economic times."

---Debbie Cook, Teacher (2nd grade), Andover Elementary School, Orlando, FL

"I read the script and decide it was perfect, since bullying is definitely a serious problem at school, and it reinforces our conflict resolution programs. It turned out to be one of my favorite musicals. The songs were fun and easy to sing and choreograph, and the students were always read with a suggestion for a move, a prop, or an extra line thrown in here or there. This musical is not only timely, but engages the children like few other curricular activities can."

---Lynne Shaw, Retired teacher now teaching an after-school GATE program, Hueneme School District, Port Hueneme, CA

"Kids loved it, especially the songs. We put it on for all of the other classes in the school and it was a big hit! We were even invited to go to a neighboring town and put it on for grades third through fifth in their school. Kids were pumped and really believed in the message they were sharing. They learned and so did the audiences."

---Brian Edgerton, Teacher (5th grade), Seth Boyden Elementary, Maplewood, NJ

"The songs were catchy and stuck in our heads. The lines were both funny and informative. Costuming was simple and students were really psyched up about performing it."

---Cara Bieber, Teacher (3-5 Drama Club) Charry Valley Elementary School, Newark, OH

"Excellent play! Teaches values and sends a good message. The songs are cute and really make the play. The kids loved doing the play." -Cathy Wendel Teacher (5th grade), Standish-Sterling Middle School, Standish, MI
