"Lee, you have been an exceptional mentor to me.  Your belief in me and the opportunities you've given me have helped me to progress so much.  I would not be the performer or singer that I am without your guidance and encouragement.  Thank you for impacting my life so wonderfully.  We'll keep in touch!"
-Kelley H.

"Over the years I have worked with Lee Coleé as a performer, and a director,and I have also been directed by her. During that time I have found her to be highly professional, enormously talented, and incredibly energetic. She does her homework and comes prepared. She strives for excellence in herself and expects it from those she works with. She knows how to pull performances from novices, professionals, adults and children alike. Lee has a tremendous imagination and is extremely ambitious. Pound for pound, she is a dynamo and offers a great bang for the buck! I count her as a personal friend and as an esteemed professional colleague."  -LeRoy N.

"Lee prepares you completely for whatever performance is coming up. After spending time with her you feel totally confident when you walk out on that stage."  -Carla D.

"Of her many gifts, Lee’s operatic performances are most thrilling to us—Puccini, yes!"  -Jule & Bert R.

"Hello Lee! I just wanted to thank you for all your help and coaching in Anything Goes. I learned more about acting singing and dancing in 3 weeks than I've learned in all the other things I've done combined. I really appreciate all you taught me and I had a lot of fun this summer. I will be working on improving everything this year and beyond and I am grateful to be able to learn from such a great talent as you."   -Jake W.

"Lee, I am in complete and total awe of the Anything Goes production! I still have no idea how you brought forth such an amazing show using the two different casts. Rusti had the time of her life and I am sure that after a couple of days rest, she will be longing for the theater. Each night she came home with a smile from ear to ear. She loved each and every minute of camp – even getting up early! Rusti will continue to study with you as long as we are able to keep her there! Thank you so much for everything you have done for her!"  -Stacy W.

"Lee, could not believe the talent of these little thespians, dancers and singers. We especially loved the fact that we got a chance to see some of our favorites "all growed up" from Wizard of Oz. Our sweet Amanda just lights up the stage. Everyone did such a great job, but the image of those tap dancing feet and big-eyed smiles just made my heart sing. Great job and congrats to all for a fine evening of great entertainment. Loved every minute of it!"   -Linda A.

"Lee Coleé is my mentor. I started out in 2003 as one of her voice students. From there I blossomed. I performed in several of her stage plays, musicals, and recitals. Under her direction I designed and built sets, went to the tech booth and ran sound and lights, and moved back stage to become a stage manager. I even emceed several of her performances. Even though I moved on to concentrate more on film, voice over, and comedy I still constantly come back to Lee for support and advice and she is always there for me."  -John D.

"Lee Coleé began giving me Tap lessons in November of 2009. I didn’t know, at all, how to tap dance and because of my weight, I wasn’t sure I’d be able to participate in the class. Even if I could, I wasn’t sure how long I would be able to participate. Our first class was overwhelming because I was so out of shape but she told me to persevere and it would get easier. She was right! I thoroughly enjoy her classes and spontaneity. The lessons are never boring! Lee never lets you get complacent and always challenges you to be better than you are. As a result, I have lost 43 pounds! I am much healthier and feel so much better about myself! Lee is a wonderful teacher! I love her Tap classes and look forward to going each week. "   -Beth Y.

"I had a fabulous time at camp, and I'm especially thankful to have had the opportunity to tackle the role of Reno! Thanks to you, I fell in love with the show, and I really want to be able to play her again someday. You've been such a wonderful teacher, mentor, and friend to me, Lee. Thank you so very much. I hope to work with you again."  Kelly E.

"Lee Coleé gave me the most important quality you need to be a performer – confidence. She was able to take a shy young boy and turn him into a confident entertainer. Lee has a gift for finding the potential in her students and pulling it out of them (no matter how difficult it may be). Along with her incredible staff, she trains her students how to be strong, quick-thinking performers. Since my days in her studios she’s added dance instruction to her curriculum of voice and acting. Without Lee I can honestly say I would not be where I am today. I was a shy child and never had many friends, so I obviously wouldn’t be caught dead singing in front of people. Now I’m in the process of packing for college where I will be working towards my BFA in Musical Theatre. It’s interesting to think where I’d be if I hadn’t taken that chance and trusted Lee. If you’re looking to get into entertainment, I highly recommend Lee Coleé Studios. It’s a one-of-a-kind experience that I’ll never forget, and I promise you won’t either."  -Coy B.

  "Hi Lee!  Just wanted to update you on Sam.  He auditioned for and was accepted into Interlochen Arts Academy in Michigan for his senior year of high school.  This is such an incredible opportunity for him!  He has finished most of his academics for graduation, so his studies will be primarily in music and vocal development, as well as stage experience. He will be surrounded by faculty and students alike who all have the same goal of being and teaching the worlds best artists.  He will also have a year as a boarding student with set schedules to help teach how to succeed at the college level.
I want to thank you for being a part of Sam's accomplishments.  You showed him what professionalism is and how to work hard to put on the best show/performance possible. Who would have thought it that first time he sang for you."  -Fran

"Our thanks and gratitude for your performance at McVey Manor.  The talent, grace and dedication the A-Team displayed is beyond wonderful!   -Phyll Fanolla
