December 13, 2025 – A local theater school is undergoing significant leadership changes following a wave of parental outrage sparked by revelations regarding the school’s founder’s past. Parents first voiced their concerns after learning that the school’s leader had been convicted of indecent assault on a minor in 2010 and again in 2011.
The situation underscores the critical importance of thorough vetting processes and obvious interaction within organizations serving vulnerable populations. While the convictions occurred over a decade ago, the recent discovery prompted immediate and forceful reactions from parents who questioned how an individual with such a history could continue to operate a school for children and adolescents.
New Leadership Installed
In response to the concerns raised, the school’s board of directors has been entirely reshaped. Four new members have been appointed: Marie Colapietro,Solène Fecourt,Hugo Carnevali,and Amina Nana. This complete overhaul signals a commitment to addressing parental anxieties and rebuilding trust.
Addressing Parental Concerns
The school has directly communicated with parents, acknowledging the gravity of the situation and the validity of their concerns. An excerpt from a message to parents reads: ”I would like to sincerely thank you for your support and for your investment in the theater and the school. Thank you also for the trust you have placed in me. Please know that I have widely relayed your interventions, your expectations, your requirements as well as your doubts. Your positioning really weighed in the balance…”
