My son attended Mr. C's drama camp
for three summers and loved it. The
plays they did were fun, creative, and
well written, and Doug's style with the
kids is marvelous. He has a great
sense of humor that comes through in
his productions, and the kids really
respond to him.
My son is now acting professionally in
New York and I thank Doug for giving
him such a great start.

Mr. Cole, the director of the camp, is
a wonderful, creative, gifted, and
very kind teacher. We only have
wonderful things to say about him
and his camp. Over the years my
step-children have attended his
camp or taken after school classes.
They rave about him and his camp.
They've also developed passion for
both theater and story telling, thanks
to Mr. C, as the children call him. We
highly recommend it.

Doug's plays are truly outstanding. He
is a highly imaginative, funny and
talented playwright and director who
knows exactly what kids enjoy. His plays
have all the qualities you would want in
a children's production-adventure,
meaning, fantasy, a little danger and a
lot of goofy humor. Doug always
manages to find the right part for the
right kid and watching the kids perform
is a delight. It's obvious they are having
a ball!

My daughter has attended Doug's
Drama for three summers and will be
attending again this year. She loves it
and it is one of the highlights of her
year! It's amazing the quality of the
production the kids pull off in two
weeks! The kids work hard, but boy do
they have fun!

My 6 year old is very shy and I was
reluctant to enroll her in Doug's
Drama. I spoke to Doug about this and
he said, "I'm good with the shy ones". I
took a chance and was amazed how
much she loved the camp. She came
home the first day and said, "Mr.C is
hilarious!". She did a great job in the
performance and her self-confidence
improved quite a bit. We have already
signed her up for this summer and she
can't wait!
