"A well-known story with a clear good/evil message. All pupils from P1 - P7 were engrossed in the performance. Final song involved all pupils in a modern song/dance whole school experience. Excellent value."

Hope
"An excellent performance about an incredibly delicate issue. 'Hope' had so many elements: entertainment, fun, talent and a 'ray of Hope'. I was gripped. I recommend this to all Key Stage 2 Departments."
Mrs Sally Massey, Year 5/6 Teacher/Arts Co-ordinator
"A wonderful performance - a serious message delivered in a professional and highly competent manner. Superb acting with humour, which didn't detract from the serious message behind it all. Extremely realistic!"
Damien Suiter - Assistant Headteacher
"I thought the performance was outstanding! It had been very well planned and put together to get the messages across to our children. I found it hard to take my eyes of the performance but when I did the children's eyes were glued too. The acting was really great which helped to children to engage for so long".

Tam O'Shanter
"Hi there, I am a supply teacher and I was lucky enough to see your performance of Tam O'Shanter at Catrine Primary School, on the morning of Thursday 24th September 2009. You were excellent! You even held the infants attention for your full show - which is no mean feat. The content was ideally pitched for all, from infants to teachers, and was educational as well as great fun. I've passed on your details to as many of my teaching colleagues as I can. I hope they book you; if they don't, they'll be missing out".
