Nancy Kane wrote a very nice article for the Southampton Press in December 2016, about Trouble in Jamaica complete with a back story of East End Special Players. Read it here.
"As the proud father of a Special Player who is rehearsing for your upcoming production in April, I want to thank the East End Special Players for including Zachary in your theater group. Your gifted actors and their enthusiasm are infectious. Your professionalism and devotion are enriching my family and our community. I can’t wait to see Gigi: the Life of a Doll." Blake Kerr
"To have had the privilege to host the East End Special Players in my studio, was rewarding and an eye opener for the love and joy that these players and there coaching team displayed. Their performance was remarkable and enriching about a world I knew little about, and I am looking forward to another event. I will donate another small sculpture for their next fundraising." Hans Van de Bovenkamp
"I had the privilege of seeing Kokrobite Junction performed at Bay Street Theater in 2011. The energy and commitment of the players was astounding!" commented Jeri Miners, a member of the audience.
"It was a charming production [The Legend of Deirdre]. It brought tears to my eyes, and my husband's too", says Mary Ann Karoussus, a member of the audience.
"I'm impressed," adds Patti Love, a Mise Erie Irish Dance instructor. "Two of the dancers wrote their college entrance essays about the players and their collaboration with them. Their teachers forwarded the papers to the superintendent."
"Love was spilling over everywhere on Sunday afternoon at Guild Hall when the East End Special Players presented their play, From King Arthur With Love," wrote Marion Wolberg Weiss in her review in Dan's Papers.
"There are many reasons why I am in theatre. The East End Special Players is one; their production of The Mikado in Mime moved me to reach out, to hold and to love," says Bradlee E. Bing, Executive Artistic Director of Theatre Three.
"I believe that this is a very worthy project that you are performing. Good Luck!" -Eunice Kennedy Shriver, The Joseph P.Kennedy, Jr. Foundation.
"...Performances can often be surprising, enlightening and most of all - exciting"- The Southampton Press.
For the performers, acting enhances their self-esteem, confidence, and awareness of the theater. Newsday
