“An ingeniously executed piece” **** Belfast Telegraph

AUDIENCE COMMENTS

“It was amazing – visually exciting, fast music to keep pace with the dancing and comedy! Children were captivated for 25 minutes.”

“Very much so! It was very different but extremely effective. Loved the “stay and play” session – excellent leadership!”

“3 year old and his 3 year old friend enjoyed the comedy (falling off chairs) and stay and play VERY MUCH. I’ve never seen him as concentrated and engaged as he was during the stay and play.”

“Thoroughly enjoyed it. There was lots of energy and movement that really captured the imagination of the whole group.”

“Great show again! Very captivating for the whole audience! Also stay and play great fun for the kids.”

“Everyone enjoyed it. Watching the little ones enjoyment!”

“Really impressed, can’t work out who loved it more – the adults or the kids. The creativity was excellent, length perfect, and each movement had interest. Music perfect too.”
