"As Wordsworth wrote, 'There are in our existence spots of time, that with distinct pre-eminence retain a renovating virtue, whence . . . our minds are nourished and invisibly repaired.' For me, this performance will be one of those precious spots of time.
Dear Karen, Thank you for sharing your art and magic with our students.
