"We are so grateful to Theater with a Twist for being my daughter's first experience with community theater. She began in kindergarten with Mulan Jr. and participated every year up through 5th grade in at least one production (sometimes 2) and has such wonderful happy memories from these shows thanks to both of you."

"Mary Spinosa is a registered nurse, drama therapist, and the executive director of Theatre With a Twist, where she works with hundreds of actors with the disorder. “When people with ADHD find their sweet spot, they will shine brightly. They really just need to be engaged to hit their best,” she explains." "If you have ADHD, Spinosa recommends scheduling a one-on-one with the director of your project. “A meeting between the two can help both develop a plan to ensure success,” she says."

While body language is critical to a stellar performance, actors must be careful not to overdo that aspect of the craft. “If the cues are too grandiose, the audience gets their own cues that the actors are trying to compensate for not knowing lines or actions,” Spinosa says."
