What students have said…
Rarely do we glimpse the elegant storytelling behind an author and actor’s extraordinary journey. Too often, students only learn about a playwright’s process after the work has premiered—or, like a classic play, through fragmented, apocryphal tales. When My Sleeping Dragon Woke, however, is different. It resulted in students calling it 'courageous,' 'transcending,' and 'so human,' inspiring them to take the leap and share their own.
