Susan Stone-Lawrence
"I have been a high school drama teacher, a theater producer and director, and have also run my own business. I would choose Susan as a colleague, student or protege in any of these areas. She is passionate, intelligent, organized, extremely motivated, thorough and conscientious. But what thrills me most about Susan is her absolute hunger and quest for things that most of us might consider mundane."
Wendy Leigh - Vice President of Education
Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center
"Susan Stone-Lawrence was a skilled and astute dramaturg for our production of Maxwell in 2001. This was a particular challenge since the playwright/composer mixed so much science fiction and science fact along with many merged literary and pop cultural references. It was no small task to take on. I am confident that Susan would be an asset to any theater organization."
David M. Jenkins - Producing Artistic Director
"Susan did a great job of meeting the varied abilities of diverse learners, while keeping their assignments on the same theme. She has also done an outstanding job on her ESOL accommodations. That can be challenging for a lesson on Shakespeare! I am most impressed with her work...I have all confidence that she will be a wonderful teacher."
Ricky Slaughter - Instructor
Educator Preparation Institute
"Susan's attention to detail and thorough process of (her) mind makes it a joy to work alongside her. With a mind like an encyclopedia and freedom like a flourishing artist, she brings the best of logic and creativity together like no one else I have met."
Mitch Osborn - Founder/Instructor
"Within the first few minutes of her lesson, the students were absolutely engaged in her lesson and paid full attention to it. In many ways, she had them eating out of her hands."
Anne Harris - English Teacher
"It is my fortune to always be surrounded by very talented and bright individuals, but there are few that I can count on to bring the relentless work ethic, amazing specificity, and sobering comprehension that Susan brings to the table. As a constant collaborator, she is one of the reasons I am considered to be at the top of my game in my artistic endeavors."
