“We had so much fun with Caissie and learned alot from her over the summer, so we decided to bring her back for our fall/winter semester! We can’t wait for the next set of classes so our students can continue learning and growing from her," said Prep Co-owner Jessi Clayton.

 

Prep Co-owner Theresa Fowler Pittius further added, "Our students are over the moon to be working with such a seasoned Broadway performer. Caissie's feedback and coaching in class has been illuminating for them. Learning from Caissie is an experience none of them will ever forget, and we are so grateful to be able to provide this opportunity virtually to our talented students all over the country."
