Student Comments:

"George is clearly very passionate about theatre and was never less than extremely energetic in class. He was never afraid to 'push the envelope' when talking about touchy subjects..."

 

"Theatre was one of my favorite courses this semester. The class changed my whole idea of theater and helped me realize what theater is all about...I am a business major and thought that theater was going to be a really pointless and meaningless class. However, I can say that George made this one of the best classes in college I have taken."

 

"George Brown really challenges you to think and consider the possibilities."
