| Seven and a half years ago, Cassandra and I began imagining a traveling children’s theatre: we wrote a play, held table readings, met with knowledgeable colleagues who could advise us, and began laying the foundations for Compass Creative Dramatics. The following summer, we hosted our first series of performance programs with students in Illinois, Indiana, and Chicago. Fast forward to 2019, and we’ve held programs in 50+ communities in 18 states. We’ve served children and their families from Texas to Minnesota to Florida to Maine. I have been, and will always be, proud of the work that we have accomplished in just seven years. And today, I’m proud to move on and leave Compass Creative Dramatics in Cassandra’s hands. Cassandra’s passion, dedication, and perception will continue to drive the Compass Creative Dramatics team forward, as she has ably done for all of us over the last seven years. Compass Creative Dramatics and our relationships with our communities across the country will continue to flourish under her leadership. |  |
Because Cassandra and I both “wear many hats” at Compass, we’ve worked over the last twelve months to assemble the administrative team that will lead Compass Creative Dramatics into a new decade:

And of course Cassandra Quinn, Executive Director and owner.
Over the first few weeks of 2020, Macy will be introducing you to each of the team members. Keep your eyes on our blog and social media for interviews and photos! In the meantime, you can check out the team’s bios on our staff page.
And I might still show up here and there as a guest blogger or a substitute teacher. Who knows? ;)

Friends, I’ve learned so much throughout my time with Compass—about running a business, about selling a service, about working with a team, and about myself. When Cassandra and I started Compass in 2012, I was 25 years old. Cassandra and I have, in a way, grown up with Compass. We’ve certainly both stretched our creativity and bravery muscles and are so much stronger than we were when we met in 2008. I’m so grateful for Cassandra’s friendship, patience, love, and leadership throughout our adventure.
I’m officially hanging up my Compass hat today, but it’s my birthday on Friday and this year, for my birthday, I want you to meet someone.
So hang tight--I’ll be posting one last time on Friday with an introduction I want to be sure you see.
After that, I’m onto the next adventure. (eek!)
I'll miss Compass and all of you! Meeting our students and their families has been an incredible joy over the last seven years. If you want to keep up with me, you can find me at www.instagram.com/borrowedcats
With love,
