You Can Say No 

         A performance musically designed to instill in young people a sense of pride and confidence in their ability to make good healthy choices. Using a combination of songs, dialogue, and both interesting and creative audio and visual aids, John heightens his audience's awareness of drugs, alcohol and tobacco. The audience is empowered with the self-confidence and self-worth needed to resist peer pressure and "say no". Whether rocking to the song 

"Say No To Drugs", singing "No No No Tobacco",  rapping and hand-jiving to  the song "Yourself Belongs To You", or swinging to "I've got the Blues",  children are constantly reminded that they have the right to make their own decisions. 

"I am always impressed with your ability to capture and maintain the audiences attention, as well as gain their participation. Your program is key to youth in the fight against drugs. With positive messages like yours, differences can be made in the community."
Michael C. Mather, Executive Director, Mass. Governor's Alliance Against Drugs
