Testimonials

“After watching my niece fight for her life for seven years and then losing her at age 24 to heroin, I can tell you this play is absolutely true to life. It captures the feelings of the addict and the family members honestly and deeply. ‘Addicted’ is a must­-see for every high schooler.”
-Barbara Ford, Retired school psychologist

“The play, which exposes the heart­wrenching impact of addiction and overdose, is a potent tool in our efforts to stop local youth from ever trying drugs and alcohol.”
-Joe Ryan, Administrator, Office of Drug Control Policy under Harford County Executive Barry Glassman

“’Addicted’ is a powerful play. It’s heartbreaking, tragic, effective and moving. It is the most important theatrical work I have ever been a part of. To see such a powerful, educational, piece, artfully directed and created with the intent to educate and save lives is overwhelming. The impact it has had on my students is absolutely moving. Bravo!”

“Great show. As a recovering addict, the feelings and situations were very relatable, especially to my mother’s view about me. Eye opener to younger kids and parents who are unfamiliar with addiction and AA.”
-Audience Member

“This was a great play, very informative and put drugs in a total different way in my mind. From a 12 year old’s perspective that was a play that closed the thought and would make me never ever use drugs. An absolutely amazing play for everyone.”
