Words to describe Rachel's Choreography: "Inspired" (Heather Anne Wilson-Bowlby), "Powerful" (Winston Simms). "Top notch and tells a beautiful story" (Kelly Price), "Innovative and creative" (Paula Baldwin)

 

Charles LaBorde- Article Reviewer: "Besides these major roles there is a very creditable contingent of singers, dancers, and actors. The Kit Kat Girls (now consigned only to being dancers with their original stage-band function only a very distant memory) are delightfully naughty and sleazy. What really elevates them are the brilliantly decadent costumes and the amazing choreography boy Rachel Peterson."

​

Amanda Grant- Entertainment Operations Manager, Carowinds: “It is my pleasure to recommend Rachel Peterson. I have worked with Rachel for multiple seasons at Carowinds as one of her entertainment supervisors. During that time, I was able to witness Rachel grow as an artist and an employee. As Rachel’s supervisor, I have seen her talents and her personal growth firsthand. Rachel showed impressive technicality as a dancer delivered maturity in her performance, and demonstrated a multi faceted ability to sing and act as well. During the daytime she would bring smiles to our younger guests as a costumed character escort, and daytime show host. At night, she would light up the stage as a dancer in our show Luminate! As our youngest nighttime performer, Rachel succeeded in adapting to a more mature role that required a great deal of endurance and dance ability. Rachel definitely stands out in her ability to perform, and in her work ethic alike. I have had the chance to give her feedback and watch her apply it with gratefulness. I am confident that her versatility and drive will make an excellent addition to your community.”

 

Britt Juleen Gonzalez - ECU Ballet Professor: “Rachel was a joy to have in my show. She always showed up ready to work with a great attitude and focus of attention. She is open and responsive and loves to exude artistry. These qualities are also what makes her wonderful in the rehearsal process as well. She will be an asset to anything she sets her mind to.” 

 

Caroline Calouche- Artistic & Executive Director - Caroline Calouche & Co: “Rachel has a sunny disposition and is passionate about teaching and performing. She communicates clearly and in a timely manner, making it very easy to work with her.” 

 

Lindsay Blackburne- CMHS Dance Teacher: “What I find most endearing about Rachel is her commitment. She always finds ways to challenge herself above and beyond. She is a beautiful dance performer with exceptional technique. Rachel’s morals and goals are clear. When asked to demonstrate work, she is always prompt to offer examples. Any company would be proud of the work that Rachel can offer, and it is an honor to write her a recommendation.”

 

Jaclyn O’Toole- Choreographer for Carowinds, JMMD entertainment, JCSU assistant professor of dance: “ Rachel is a pleasure to work with and brings a natural stage presence to all of her performances. She is adaptable to change in production and pays attention to detail.”

 

Elissa- MyPrettyPrincess Royal Manager: “I had the pleasure of hiring Rachel as a performer for my company. Her enthusiasm, performance experience and friendly personality made her a natural addition to our team. When Rachel is performing, she embodies the character. She portrays fully becoming that character as she engages with children, answering their questions and giving them special attention. When Rachel is performing at the event, I feel confident knowing that the kids will have a magical experience.”
