Jamey Jamison
Executive Director
I am thrilled that after an eventful year all my children and parents have found a new home … again. With G-d as my witness we shall never move again! Seriously, I am in awe of the support that exists for this program and humbles at the faith, love and charity that the families of Plano have extended to myself and my vision. I am excited what a new location and a new board will bring. The possibilities of this adventure are endless. Our new motto, “A Place to ACT for Life!” Is more than just a slogan. It is a wish, a hope a prayer for our entire program. We hope that you and your family not only find a place to do a few shows, but also find a home that your current children, their children and even your parents can call their own. I plan on offering shows that appeal to ALL actors and audiences.
