Doug and Lise were wonderful! The students, staff, and principal said it was one of the best assembly programs they’ve seen. The show was fun and entertaining while teaching important topics about bullying prevention and showing good character. Doug was a true professional.

The show was fantastic, and the performers were professional and engaging. The students and staff all had a blast. The content of the show was perfect for our kids, and it hit home for kids in grades K-5. It was just as fun for our 5-year-olds as it was for our 11-year-olds. Casey Stansifer – Principal
