Comments from the audience

“Musician was excellent.”

“This is the first time my son has seen a dance production, and he really enjoyed it. Also challenged his perception that dance is just for girls!”

“The musician was super – beautiful sounds – which complimented the performance very well.”

“Great choreography.”

“Very good musician. He was just amazing. Cool.”

“Coming with such young children (5 and 6), it would have been useful to have a bit of a synopsis of the story before the performance, i.e A5 flyer, to discuss with the kids. Dance is quite difficult to interpret for younger children.”

“A lovely piece of work.”

“My daughter is 3½ and sat still for the whole time – something that never happens – she was captivated!”

“Music was fantastic. A street dancing turtle should be part of every play!”

“It was brilliant! Liked the tortoise dancing because it was cool!”

“Really, really enjoyed it!! All three kids (aged 7, 6 and 4) were engaged and interested throughout. Didn’t straight away understand the story but then loved it as the characters unfolded. Clever, creative, brilliant to watch. Kids – and us adults – loved it!!”
