“Dan has an incredible capacity to heighten theatre artists around him into more capable and creative forms of themselves. He has built an enormously strong community out of the strength of his vision coupled with a never-say-die attitude that becomes infectious. I can say as someone who has worked with Dan on many projects and over many years, he is such an incredible artist, person, and friend who’s passion for his endeavors fuels my own.”

“Working with Dan was a very eye opening experience. He found a way to help me connect to my role in a way I never have before. To quote him he helped me solidly say that I could consider myself an actor who sings not just a singer who acts. Overall, couldn’t have asked for better direction from Dan and Footloose was one of my best theater experiences yet.” –

-Sean FitzGerald

“Dan Pelletier has been the shining example of revival, leadership and confidence. I’ve learnt countless acting methods and exercises from him with my time at Central High School’s Maskers. He’s the ultimate person to contact about professional advice and guidance for those wanting to step in the entertainment industry as a profession. He’s a man of trust and wisdom.” –

-Christian Fraizer

“Dan has easily been the best director I’ve worked with as part of a production team in over a decade of music directing. He is insightful, challenges the kids without being harsh or too demanding, compromises well when necessary, and is incredibly knowledgeable about all aspects of putting on quality productions. He works so hard, staying until the early hours of the morning programming lights before tech week, instructing both the performers and the tech crew, all while managing to stay cool and collected with the kids. After 20 years of being involved with musical theatre, I’ve learned more about it as a whole working with Dan than anywhere else. The kids idolize and respect him, which, working with teenagers, says a lot. I would jump at the chance to work with Dan any time, as music director or performer.” –
