  • "I can't say enough about Thea's ability to work with students and bring out their best. Thea had a remarkable talent for building a rapport with my child, enabling her to dive into the work and grow tremendously within a short period of time. Her combination of professionalism and warmth challenged my daughter to push herself creatively and develop her poise auditioning and performing. We saw an immediate improvement in her confidence on stage but also in her self-possession in all areas of her life."

  • “I had an NYC intensive coming up called Broadway Evolved where I would get the opportunity to work with Broadway stars and industry professionals, but I never had professional one-on-one vocal training. Mrs. Moore offered to help me and taught me how to sing healthily through proper use of breath and core. Working with her built my confidence to the point where singing for icons like Jessica Vosk and Ashley Loren didn't seem so scary!”

  • “Thea is amazing. On short notice, she provided invaluable guidance and help in preparing my daughter’s audition videos for Interlochen’s Musical Theatre summer program. She assisted with choosing and recording the necessary materials and was so patient from beginning to end. We both loved working with her.”
