Prologue

In the fall of 2004, the Odyssey school located in the Stapleton area, contacted Rachel Greengard Galt, a seasoned actress and member of the Wolf Theatre Academy faculty, wanting her to be a drama teacher. Several Odyssey students had previously taken classes with Rachel at the Wolf Academy. Odyssey was putting together their after-school enrichment program, with the goal of providing fun and educational classes within their communities. Educational outreach has always been important to Rachel; and working with schools as an enrichment provider enables Play On! programs to reach a wider audience. Fast forward to 2009, Rachel nows runs three classes a week at Odyssey, has expanded into several other metro Denver schools and has begun to hire other excellent and passionate instructors to teach. From Rachel contracting independently with schools she formed Executive Arts, LLC and gave her programs the name Play On! Play On! is now expanding its offerings to include other creative arts and hopes to have a studio soon!

“Rachel is a remarkably gifted teacher. She develops instant rapport with her students and leads them through a process of gaining, building and refining skills. She encourages creativity and emphasizes experiencing all aspects of putting on a play, including appreciation for the literature, writing and production work. Most importantly her outcomes are measured in fun and you child will delight in spending time with her! “ – Elaine Selsberg
