I cannot say enough wonderful and positive things about Big Star Performing Arts. This is more than just a school, it turns into your family and your children's extended family. Every single member of the staff is so incredibly nurturing and supportive and leans into where your child is in their journey and figures out that thing that makes them shine.

Wish there was an option to not give 1...

From a parent's perspective, we saw his self-confidence grow exponentially. He has a leadership presence in other aspects of his life, and I have seen him eagerly take on challenges, such as public speaking to large crowds and engaging with strangers, without hesitation. The lessons he is learning at Big Star are far beyond the singing, dancing, and acting skills he first attended and will support him throughout his life. Trust me, his performing skills have improved...
