"John and Denise, the hearts of Broadway Arts Collective, are true gems. My daughter has had her eye on Broadway since the age of 4 and early on we struggled to find acting/musical theater experiences that were at a caliber that met her needs. We were so lucky to find Broadway Arts Collective when she was young and they have been a core part of her creative team ever since. We refer to John and Denise as her Theater Mom and Dad, a title that is well deserved because not only are they talented, knowledgeable, and connected to the industry, they are also the kind of people that truly SEE their students. They are the people that stay up late thinking about how to best support and push, who develop programs from the ground up when what is needed for artistic kids doesn't exist in the area, and who create an environment that cultivates a feeling of safety and camaraderie so kids feel confident to take risks, knowing that creativity and growth takes putting yourself out there and not always getting it right.  And most importantly, their belief in my daughter never waivered, even when she struggled, even when she didn't believe in herself, and that kind of support is something every child should have in their life.

Forever grateful."

--Vanessa, Acting/Musical Theatre BFA Parent

"My daughter has been training with Denise Summerford and Broadway Arts Collective for 7 years. In workshops with Broadway professionals, she has received incredible training in singing, dancing and acting. BAC has helped prepare her for college, where she will be studying Vocal Performance and Musical Theater. We are extremely grateful to Denise for providing  such exceptional opportunities to learn, train and grow as an artist. I strongly recommend BAC if you have a child who wants to perform. There is no better training."

-- N.D., Musical Theatre BFA Parent

"I cannot recommend Broadway Arts Collective enough! As a BFA Acting candidate navigating the intense audition season, my son needed guidance during this competitive time. John was an absolute lifesaver- expertly helping my son discover fresh, compelling monologue material that truly fit his type and strengths, while providing insightful, personalized coaching lessons that elevated his performances. My son definitely felt inspired and prepared. 

Throughout the frenetic process, John remained consistently positive, encouraging, and calm, boosting my son's confidence. Thanks to his guidance and support, my son was accepted to many of his favored schools. John was just as happy and thrilled as we were! My son landed at his top choice school  ~ PACE! ~ and couldn't be happier. We are so grateful for John and Broadway Arts Collective!"​

-- Christine, Acting BFA Parent

"Even from the opposite coast, the coaching and support my son received from Broadway Arts Collective was not just helpful, it was transformational.  In a few short weeks, they bolstered his confidence and expanded his bandwidth as a performer.  They affirmed his choices and gave constructive direction that made his taped monologues for college applications authentic pieces that were interesting and demonstrative of his range and strengths. John's approach was always holistic, realistic, and artistic, and the impact of that combination still serves as a foundation for my son's development of every performance.  Best, best, best decision we ever made! "
-- Leslie, Acting BFA Parent
