My daughter has done classes with Jennifer and Fairfield Performing Arts for 3 years now and she always enjoys class and is sad when a session is over. Jennifer has such a way with the children and they all blossom under her tutelage! It is such a fun, low pressure but high learning environment, Jennifer has the formula down! All of the children are so happy to be in that room for the hour!

Fairfield Performing Arts is such an amazing camp. It really helps me to step out of my comfort zone when acting, dancing, or singing. I love learning about the process of doing a play through games and other fun activities. I always look forward to coming back months before the summer even starts!

We've been involved with Jen Kenny and her great staff at FPAS for years. This program is an outstanding mix of fun and skills-building. The growth of the young performers under Jen's direction shows the high level instruction they're receiving. Highly recommended.

If you asked me nine months ago, "do you think that acting will help your shyness?" I would say that you’re crazy! But it turns out that I was completely wrong and that taking these acting classes not only helped with my shyness but my confidence and creativity as well. That is all thanks to Jennifer and FPAS!!

My nine-year old daughter is a HUGE fan of Jennifer's drama program! She has learned so much about what goes into the production of a show, even on a small scale and she has enjoyed the process - from script introduction to the "final curtain" - immensely. Jennifer makes learning fun and the kids take so much pride in the finished product... you can see it in their faces as they take their final bows. After multiple sessions in Jennifer's winter and spring classes, my daughter is now REALLY excited for the three-week summer camp program!
