Sample Teaching Reviews:
I just wanted to congratulate you again on the glowing reviews you got from your company. It’s tough to get any 22 people in America to agree on anything, but there was a general agreement that your sophisticated handling of the people involved was remarkable.
Jon Jory-Producing Director, Actors Theatre of Louisville, 2000
I’ve seen her pull order out of chaos. She’s a mentor.
Marc Masterson-Artistic Director, Actors Theatre of Louisville, 2003
It (Intensive workshop at North Carolina Theatre) paid for my child to THINK-to explore and begin to develop his own philosophy and theology of life. Six kids whose lives are forever changed by the fifty-five hours with Sullivan White, the gentle teacher who gave them so much more than a skill based Intensive.
Diana Greene-excerpt from StageNotes, North Carolina Theatre, 2004
This has been one of the most personally challenging classes I've ever taken (Advanced Directing, Transylvania University). As an aspiring director, I've been pushed to continuously improve myself and my understanding of the art of theatre. Sully is an incredible instructor and I am a better person because of my experiences with her.
Josiah Knight, Transylvania University
I have had extensive experience onstage and with different teachers and directors of theater, and one teacher/director that has stood out to me was Sullivan White. “Sully,” as we call her, is one of the most intelligent, creative, dedicated, selfless, and innovative people I have ever met. I’ve worked with her on numerous occasions over five years and she never ceases to teach me new things every day.
Ellie Todd, former Kentucky Conservatory Theatre student
Sullivan White has been my teacher and friend for over five years. She is undoubtedly a huge part of the foundation on which my life in the theatre is built. Her focus and passion is contagious
LoraBeth Barr, former Kentucky Conservatory Theatre student
She’s down-to-earth and open to suggestions. She knows how to inspire students and how to help them push through the hard work involved in putting on a superior performance.
Macy Early, former Kentucky Conservatory Theatre student
Sullivan White changed the way I think about theatre. She brought compassion, intelligence, and enthusiasm into every place she worked. She is wonderful teacher, director, and friend. I am so honored to have had the opportunity to work with her.
Hutch Pimentel, former Kentucky Conservatory Theatre student
Sully has the beautiful ability to push and challenge you, as both an actor and a person, without making you feel uncomfortable or anxious. She creates a learning environment, where you feel comfortable to trust your instincts and try new things
Hannah Ferrell, former Kentucky Conservatory Theatre student
Sully White is, in a word, incredible. She is the kind of instructor who makes you genuinely excited for her class, even if that class means waking up early in the summer to do some very physically challenging activities. Sully fosters an attitude of mutual respect that views everyone, student or instructor, as a mutual learner. This allows for profound learning opportunities.
