“During the many years I have known and worked with Leslie, as director, actor, dramaturg, critic, teacher, writer, dramatic confidante and close friend, I have grown accustomed to bringing problems to her and receiving advice that is always concise, brilliant and utterly creative. She is the most knowledgeable, thoughtful, generous and experienced theatre person I have ever met. Period.”

“If you are considering taking a class with Leslie, stop considering and sign up! 🙂 She is an incredibly talented performer and teacher. I have the great fortune to have performed with her and worked with her on my own show, and I have deep trust and respect for her. She creates a safe environment for the performer, which is crucial to getting your best work out.”
