Excellence is Habit: Wisdon, Wit, and Advice from a Theatre Teacher & Director
Mason HS When recalling working with, or talking to, Billy and Annie for the first time, the first words that come to mind are authentic, passionate, experienced and invested. -- Jacki Maenius - Director at Mason High School
Two words come to mind when I think of my colleagues and friends Billy and Annie Dragoo. Excellence and Enjoyment. From having Billy out to do our annual One Act Play clinic, the wonderful workshops they do at our conventions, to the amazing shows I have seen at Austin High School those two thoughts permeate my relationship with them. I know I’m a better director and educator because of time spent with them. And if you ever get a chance to go to a baseball game with Billy, or talk musical theatre with Annie, you should definitely make the most of those enjoyable and excellent opportunities. ~ Chuck Harris - Liberty Hill High School
Billy and Annie have helped grow and encourage young artists like my daughter. She is now a first year teacher. Billy and Annie were her clinicians when she was a student. Billy was her clinician when she began directing this year. Her students are successfully telling their story. This passion for this amazing art is growing in a whole new group of kids because Billy and Annie have never stopped caring about growing our storytellers. ~ Kimberly & John Fryman, Mt. Enterprise High School
