Students Live

“Nothing will do more to open doors for our young people and prepare them for unimagined new careers.” –Former President Bill Clinton on the Students Live Broadway Education Programs

“Programs like these enable a new generation of audiences to make the arts a permanent part of their lives.” –Former Secretary Of State Hillary Clinton on the Students Live Broadway Education Program

“This was the most well-prepared and well-executed education program I have ever attended…here’s a program that makes students live and breathe in a way they never did before.” –Peter Filichia, Theatre Critic, Newark Star Ledger and TheaterMania.com

“StudentsLive has facilitated a unique, living program that embodies commitment and passion to sharing of theater to students, of the international community, that’s both priceless and bold. They’re a shining tower for all to look upon and admire.” –Gelan Lambert, Broadway Actor, Fela!

“I ran into Passport to Broadway when I was preparing for the launch of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert the Musical in New York – for a time I shared an office with Amy Weinstein, Chief Visionary. As someone with a long-term interest in the education of aspiring theatre practitioners I was impressed by the commitment of the entire StudentsLive team, and the energy and enthusiasm of the young people they inspired. It was obvious to me that the intensive, interactive and immersive nature of this programme was unique; young people work through the actual processes of rehearsing and presenting a production, guided and mentored by experienced professionals. They are encouraged to find their own voice, to express themselves both personally and creatively and, through their individual and collective experiences over two weeks, to build confidence and self-esteem. The international opportunities for this innovative programme are obvious and I’ve often thought that an alliance with international teachers and arts educators was an inevitable step. Amy and Passport to Broadway are a natural fit for any international school. I applaud and celebrate their collaboration and I know they will jointly provide an invaluable resource for young international students – whether students of theatre, or those seeking skills that will fit them for any profession.” -Garry McQuinn, Producer, Priscilla, Queen of the Desert the Musical
