TESTIMONIALS
It is programs like these that keep kids involved, motivated and inspired to continue with Drama Club and Musical Theater. This Musical experience and playing his role of Wilbur Turnblad ignited my sons passion so much that he had the confidence to audition for private theaters outside his High School. We can not thank PVST enough for being so supportive and dedicated to the kids , especially since it’s on summer break. We now have an extended Theater family and will be forever grateful for this experience.
Thank you So Much,
- Andrea Guidetti
My daughter is a three-year veteran with PVST Jr., and year after year, the middle a school production blows me away! Mike & Catherine DeLuccia are dedicated to this company of young thespians, and it shows! These kids work so hard for weeks, and the end result is always a top-notch musical!
Closing night is always accompanied by tears because my daughter doesn’t want to say goodbye to her cast mates.
PVST doesn’t just foster a love of the arts for young performers in our community; it fosters a community among young lovers of the arts!

Our daughter Natalie has been involved with the Passaic Valley Summer Theater Program since 2019. Her first summer with PVST really sparked her love for musical theater. That first year with PVST also solidified her decision to attend Passaic Valley High School to take part in their tremendous performing arts programs.
Through PVST she has made many meaningful connections and friends with children from all over Northern NJ who share the same love for the performing arts.
The PVST directors and staff truly care about the program and inspire the kids to perform their best. The productions are top notch and always leave us in awe. Friends and family who have attended PVST shows over the years have commented on how professional the productions are and how great the kids are during the performances.
Being a part of the PVST program has been a blessing for Natalie and we are excited that our daughter Sarah began participating with PVST this summer!
Keep up the great work.
