D&A Talent: what do users think?

Amanda King: D&A Talent has given me and so many others such amazing opportunities to pursue what we love in acting, modeling, and singing. They are professional and create opportunities for our team to develop, connect, and network with others in the industry. They care about their talent and are willing to work hard to help us succeed.

hector Torres: I have auditioned a lot and worked on a few projects. They continue and always have supported me on and off stage. I wouldn’t be anywhere near the person I am today, nor the career I would have no without them.

thida phongsavath: My 4 1/2 year daughter went here for Tiny Stars classes and finished not to long ago. It was awesome! She came a long way from the start to the end. She learned how to do her slate, commercial, monologue and many more. Now she is sign with multiple agencies locally in the twin cities. She booked her first gig recently and can’t wait to see what’s in store for her next. Thank you everyone at D&A talent!

Brooke Janssen: I have been with D&A since 2007! Connie and Heather have been like a second family to me and have helped me seek representation. They are the BEST of the best. They stick with you the whole way even after they help you get an agent/manager. Without their training and helping me gain the confidence I need, I wouldn’t have felt right to make the next step. Thanks D&A!

Tan Huynh: Highly recommend D&A Talent. If you a new talent in Minnesota market, don't know where to start. I would say start at D&A Talent. D&A Talent helped me develop my skills and helped me signed with agencies in Minnesota market. Also helped me build a network in LAD&A employs award winning coaches that teach the fundamentals of Acting and Modeling along with audition techniques, industry do's and don'ts and advanced session. These can make the difference between not booking or booking a job. The more seasoned an actor/model is the better chance they have of nailing an audition and booking that job.

Alex B: I trained with Connie for 10 weeks, and now I'm signed with the biggest agency in Minnesota!! I have loved my time, and I know that I have walked away with more than training, I have walked away with people who genuinely care about me.

Farha Beswick: I love D&A tremendously both Ms.Connie and Ms. Heather are two awesome people who help their talent to sign with agencies and we love the workshops for both models and actors if you are looking for a place to send your children to for both modeling and acting workshops please checkout D&A talents it’s well worth it. And they actually care about their talent. Thank you for everything D&A talent.

Natasha Kasor: Nothing short of a wonderful experience, since choosing Heather and Connie to support my son’s modeling & acting career with the necessary training and practice sessions they provide. Who knew at just 3 years old he would pack so much information. From no experience 6 months ago to seemingly being a professional. Big thank you from our family to D & A Talent.

Nikki Monahan: I brought my son Carter to an open audition in 2020, he got a callback and at that time we decided to not move forward. I was skeptical and wanting to make sure my son was 110% ready to dive into this. After following D&A on Instagram and Facebook for a year, we decided to go back for another audition. When we walked in, I was surprised that they had remembered Carter! I explained to them how I wasn’t ready last year because I wanted to make sure they were legit and Carter was serious about becoming an actor. Connie and Heather were both SO understanding! They never made me feel bad for taking the time to check into them. Carter began training with them for the Industry Network. After months of training, it was time for the big event! Carter won numerous awards and received multiple callbacks from agencies in Los Angeles. None of this would have been possible without the help of Connie and Heather. They took the time going through hundreds of monologues and scripts finding the perfect one for Carter and the other contestants. We will continue to work with D&A on deciding which agency is best for Carter and his goals. Along with providing exceptional training for their actors/models/singers, they create a family. Even though we compete against one another it never felt like it. They carefully choose who to work with and have an eye for talent. During the whole Industry Network all of the contestants felt like family and encouraged one another. Thank you so much for all of your hard work and dedication!

Ricky “RikkiBobbii” Barrett: $5style

Lloyd Scott: Ms. Connie, doing a great work with all of us.

Northrop: what do users think?

Travel Geek: it is a beautiful place

Henry Young Jr: I moved out of state 1995-2023, so it was astounding to return to Northrop to hear Anna Lapwood and discover how terrific the restoration of interior and exterior turned out.

Olaf Minge: What an amazing and historic building - Northrop Auditorium. With a world class restored organ built in 1936 with over 7,000 pipes. Attended a performance by Anna Lapwood, the “Tik Tok organist.”

Tiffany Rupp: It has been many years since I have attended anything here. We came for the performance of Giselle. At first I wondered why they chose a college theater to hold such an acclaimed ballet but as we walked in I was surprised by the regal appearance. The seats are comfortable and it is easy to walk down the stairs to see the pit. My only qualm was that they did not make am announcement for people to not be taking pictures or using phones period. The lady in front of us was constantly on her phone and it was very distracting.

Tracy Wells: Видел балет. Отличное место.

Amber Pietan: Excellent auditorium, friendly staff, and clean building. The sound is very good.

Minnesota Ballet Theatre & School: what do users think?

Shannon Gale: Wonderful lively ballet classes with perfect technique in a supportive and professional environment.

Susan Shourds: This is the best way to learn and enjoy vagonova ballet for adult ballet students. Expert and consistent instruction is provided for anyone wanting to train the body and mind.As studio dancer for over 5 decades, and under this instruction for over 2 years, I can see that Minnesota Ballet always strives to meet the standard of excellence at every level of instruction.

Katie Kreber: I love Kirill's classes for adults! They're a great way to stay in shape, educational, and are the perfect combination of laid-back but still challenging.

Patrice Ehlert: I thoroughly enjoy taking adult ballet classes with Kirill. He encourages students to ask questions, has a wonderful sense of humor, and possesses endless knowledge regarding technique. Students are welcoming, friendly, and positive. I have always appreciated the exercises of introspection and body awareness in dance, so it's marvelous to be able to practice the Vaganova method as an adult. I look forward to many more classes!

S J W: The Saturday adult classes are fun and challenging. The student age range is broad, 20-somethings to seniors, and Kirill, the instructor, is welcoming and engaging. Lots of fun!

vik ser: Enrolling my daughter in the ballet school was one of the best decisions I ever made. Witnessing her transformation from a shy, uncoordinated beginner to a confident, skilled dancer has been truly inspiring. The school's dedication to nurturing her talent and building her confidence shines through in every graceful movement. I am immensely proud and incredibly thankful for the positive impact they've had on her journey. ✨

Ann Marie Ethen: Incredible Classical Ballet School!Instruction in the Vaganova Method of Classical Ballet is given by knowledgeable and talented teachers. Instruction begins with the young tiny dancers to the adult beginner.....I am one of the truly grateful adult dancers learning about this beautiful Art form!

Toleu Mukanov: Great studio and great teachers 👏 👍

Masha Bak: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,Quality,ValueThe teachers know what they are doing and care very much about each student that dances here. They are very professional and make sure they correct each student to be their very best.

Kira Hoffman: I have danced at the Minnesota Ballet School, since I was three, so basically since I could walk. They are beyond spectacular. With their careful attention and patience, I have learned so much. They’re Vaganova Academy Graduates, so the authentic, Russian technique they teach is better than anything you could find elsewhere. Your health and safety is their priority. They constantly stress proper foot positions so you don't fall, and they are highly accommodating to any injuries you may have. Only one or two injuries have ever happened in their classes for all the years this school has been running. They always seem to know everybody’s limits, better than even we could, and help us get there. They’re supportive of any other activities or engagements you may have. Understandably, the teaching is somewhat strict, but you will begin to receive an incredible love and passion for ballet through, not despite, this strictness. The people who attend here are absolutely amazing. I’ve made some of my best friends just by spending time in class with them. Through ballet at this school I have achieved an incredible work ethic that I consistently use through my normal life, especially in school. The persistence and mental strength you gain from this beautiful art form is highly valuable and I know I’ll use it throughout the rest of my life. Svetlana and Kirill have helped become not only a better dancer, but a better person.

Maddie Storts: I have been a student at Minnesota Ballet School for 10 years now and this studio is by far the best. The instructors are very understanding and are glad to work out a compromise if another conflict occurs. There is a very positive environment at the school and I have made very close relationships with the other dancers who are all very supportive of one another.

Saint Paul Conservatory for Performing Artists: what do users think?

Merope: and I still think about it all the time. I learned so many valuable lessons here that I still use to this day. My confidence and spatial presence grew substantially; skills that can take you far in any field. I love this school and have created some beautiful art with my fellow classmates. I hope you give it a chance.

Demetrius Winegarden: Hello! I am a current junior at this school and transferred in during freshman year. I have been in the theater and visual arts tracks, with also some experience in the musical theater track. The track I’d recommend is definitely theater because it is the most established and has the best staff. This school does have many faults though. It has a large drama and drug problem, administration that does not listen to students, and a racism/ableism problem. I recommend this school to a student with a little bit of experience and very thick skin. This school gives students a lot of freedom to express themselves and have a good time. As long as you stick with the right people, this school can be heaven for someone that suffered in traditional public school. I have heard a wide range of experiences from this school and it will be VERY different for each individual. It’s still high school. It’s gonna suck at least a little.

Jas The Dragon: This is literally the best school I've ever gone to. I'm a sophomore this year, and these two years have been the best school years of my life. I feel so welcome here, and I feel like I fit in so well.

Audrey Wegner: Hiya! I go here and I have for my entire high school experience. I’m a junior right now and this school is pretty awesome. Yeah, there are some small injustices here and there, but the reviews for the vocal track are awful. I’m a vocal student and there’s no other track I’d rather be in. I’ve met good people, learned worthwhile things, and made some strong bonds. There’s not really any reason to hate vocal track. The last reviews are from like 5 years ago. They’re invalid now. I 100% recommend vocal track.

Laney Bork: and I've had a very positive experience with this school. Contrary to many comments about the vocal track,we have created a very inclusive and positive environment for everyone to feel respected and encouraged to make mistakes and grow. The faculty is very unique and we often have guest teachers each year

Aaron Carsten: Positive:Value

Pam Boerboom: Cute play!

Mr John: Wonderful place for kids performances. We saw dragons love tacos and it was adorable. Highly recommend for a day out with the kiddos.

Deborah Uhlemann: We saw a fantastic production of Beauty and the Beast! I was with my son and daughter-in-law and four grandchildren ages 3 to 8, and we all loved it. Great acting and singing, with clever costumes and sets. Fun to see the actors and get autographs on our programs after the play. A special shout out to Ronan Guevara, who was perfect in the role of Gaston!

Kathi: Fantastic show. Brought kids ages 2 1/2 and 5. Both loved Beauty and the Beast. Great acting. Highly recommend.

Josephine Stafford: who was enraptured, but my husband and I really enjoyed the show as well. It was very kid friendly and I felt incredibly welcome - booster seats helped my daughter see the show and our tickets were great!

Megan Blaschko: and so were all the staff! The theater is pretty chilly, though,so bring a sweater!

Douglas Cutler: Saw Newsies with 100 of my favorite first graders on a field trip. Staff was great, accommodating us nicely. Theater was clean and had great angles. A couple minor sound issues in the show but otherwise everything was great!

Catherine B Dickson: Newsie great show!
