"I'd always considered myself someone who was 'just good enough' on-stage until Jerrold Scott directed me in Rocky Horror. His trust in me and the cast and his thoughtful notes made it the defining experience in my undergraduate career. Jerrold inspired me and the cast to put on a show we all deemed ourselves ill-fit to perform, and the sold out houses (the entire run) were a testament to his caliber as a director".--Thayer Juergens, undergraduate theater major at CWRU

"After having worked with over 75 directors, if I ever had to choose one director to design for, for the rest of my career, I would choose Jerrold. He is a thoughtful director who stretches his cast and designers. With Jerrold I often have to think in different ways and challenge my set of skills as a designer, when the production is over I feel like I have grown as a designer".--Jasen Smith, resident costume designer, The Weathervane Playhouse

“I love seeing and being part of shows Jerrold's directed because he crafts productions based on his own technical prowess and experience, but he also understands and gives voice to the actor's process. The process is always a balance of discipline, fun, and focus".--Kelly McCready, New York-based actor

"Jerrold is the kind of director who inspires joy in his actors through exploration and trust. Working with him on The Philadelphia Story was an amazing experience because he allowed me to feel that my character journey was not only important but necessary to the story line. Jerry is a guiding hand that is in support of the actor and the actors journey. He is someone I would be honored to work with again and again." -- Katie O. Solomon, New York-based actor
