This was a big, confident show and was infectiously enjoyable. Bright, strong, loud and brash with great dancing and movement in general, it kept the audience engaged throughout. It was funny, lively and colourful with very good principals and an enthusiastic and well drilled chorus. The production evoked the period of the early 1960s well and the TV show dances particularly were most suitable for the time. Entrances and exits were all spot on, the scenes flowed nicely into each other and the chorus gave great support to the principals.
The set in-fills were all really good, just enough to give the flavour of where the scene was set, but still leaving lots of room for movement around the stage and scene changes were slickly done. Costumes were great; bright, colourful and accurate for the period. Lighting was good with the stage well lit at all times.
Your audience really loved the show and there was a great atmosphere in the auditorium; you should be rightly proud of a great show.
