Wow. Star Of Wonder was phenomenal! I mean, really, really phenomenal. The acting was so good and the music was so beautiful…I just can’t even put it into words. The way your entire cast was all-in with the message and how balanced everyone was. I sure hope you are able to do it again next year. I’m going to fly my parents in to see it. Well done. I seriously am at a loss of words at how inspired and moved I feel after experiencing Star of Wonder.  - CB


I LOVED being there last night. The story telling and the way you weaved the past and present together was captivating. It was so impactful to me. I was regretting I hadn’t brought any tissues with me! Thank you for sharing your talents both with your music as well as your story telling last night. Thank you for your gift to all of us.  - TW


I thought my experience of becoming emotional at last year’s play @starofwondermusical was just a standalone experience and that somehow it could be chalked up to being overly tired or something. Apparently not. That play is powerful.  James Conlee, whoever you are, you are a mastermind to write a play that can evoke so much emotion. It is a must see.  - AR
