"Pippa's performances bring history to life with personal stories that warm the heart. Students and teachers are amazed at the struggles the immigrants faced when coming to Ellis Island, and the empathy they themselves feel for the Orphan Train Riders' true stories." Amy Hunzelman, Director of Education and Special Programs "Pippa's performances at STORY! were moving, thought-provoking, and dramatic. History comes alive with these one-woman shows that feel like a cast of thousands. We can't wait to have her back!" Carolyn Honeycutt, Director-Story City Chamber Connection "Thank you for two most amazing performances that were simply captivating and delightful. The feedback and evaluations were outstanding. We will be forever grateful for your contributions to the success of our Nurse Educator Conference." Conventionality Excellence Unlimited "I must admit that when I was told your performance would last for 70 minutes, I was skeptical about whether or not our family audience would remain engaged. My concerns were quickly assuaged, however, as I observed even our youngest families' enthusiastic response! In the two weeks since this event, I've received compliments from parents and volunteers for providing a program that was both entertaining and enriching. Thank you for a wonderful performance!" Christine K. Minkler "Our nursing recognition event in which Pippa White presented her performance Into Possession of Myself was wildly popular. 'Mesmerizing, educational, inspirational' were the words frequently used to describe the experience. Barbara Trehearne "This is more than a one-woman show; Pippa's talent brings to life a full cast of characters, and they become people who matter to you." Patti Cotter, Performing Arts Programming "Pippa captured the facts and the spirit of the teaching profession with a word, a look, a simple change of hat or scarf. Her one-woman show prompted laughter and tears as well as a real appreciation for the important work teachers do. We couldn't have asked for a better salute to our 100 year anniversary." Marjorie Kostelnik "Your performance here stands out as a high point in our festival history." Geraldine Yost "Pippa's portrayals of Ellis Island immigrants, Orphan Train riders and World War II resistance fighters bring forth praise for great characterization, and tears of emotion due to empathy people feel when they watch her. I hope I have the good fortune to work with her for many years to come. Pippa is the highest quality artist." Maureen J. Korte, Director of Special Projects and Programming |
