TRACIE MARIE JIGGETTS

“Tracie Marie Jiggetts does a great job as director. The actors navigate the small space and each other well, using every part of the stage to capture the drama.”

“Taking the helm of this production, Director Tracie M. Jiggetts has created this alternate Oz in a small but adequate space beautifully. According to the Spotlighters website, this show is supposed to run 2 hours and 45 minutes but, Jiggetts has managed to keep this piece moving and the pacing is on point! She manages to tell the entire story in 2 hours with a 15 minute intermission and that, my friends, is uber impressive for a show of this stature.”

“Choreography by Tracie M. Jiggetts is a highlight of this production. Tracie seems to have understood the varying abilities of the cast, which is important in this area, she managed to come up with innovative and original choreography that fits well with the piece and moves it along nicely.”

“Although the four main characters are iconic, almost archetypes, with the help of Spotlighters director Tracie M. Jiggetts, the actors behind Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, and the Lion each seemed like unique people, whose own personalities informed the characters.”

“Tracie Jiggetts, responsible for helping to shape their self-confidence and social skills at a two-week summer camp held at Towson University, The roughly 50 children age 11 to 14 who participated in the camp this summer were interviewed before being selected, with organizers looking for children from underserved populations of Baltimore who needed help with their self-esteem and who could benefit from learning creative expression.”
