http://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/about-town/the-golden-egg-20120216-1t9wg.html The Evening Times ran a round up of 5 of the Christmas Shows and Rudolf got 10 out 10. Brilliant REVIEWED BY: Archie, 8, and Harry, 3, and their mum and dad Ann and Fraser Wallace, from East Kilbride. WHAT’S IT ABOUT? Two storytellers (Rob Evans and Ross Allan) try to encourage their hen to produce an egg for Christmas Day by telling her the story of brave Rudolf, the reindeer with big dreams. Using only bits and pieces from their tiny house, they held all the audience spellbound. Captivating tale played out on a beautiful set. Perfect for families. KIDS’ VERDICT: Harry: “I liked every single bit of the story because it was very funny and very silly.” Archie: “The storytellers were brilliant.” FUNNIEST BIT: When Rudolf’s nemesis was revealed as ‘Olive, the other reindeer’ all the grown-ups giggled, and the kids loved all the running about and falling over. SCARIEST BIT: Harry and Archie experienced a moment of real anguish when poor Rudolf was left alone in the scary woods. BEST BIT: When Rudolf finally gets to pull Santa’s sleigh, of course. MARK OUT OF TEN: 10 Another great review for Rudolf

"...one of the finest seasonal plays you'll see in any year..." Read the full review here Had this lovely comment posted after the show on Saturday at the Opera House
Three mums and our three sons saw this show today at the Sydney Opera House and we all loved it - thought it was brilliant. We went into the show on a cloudy rainy day and emerged into bright sunshine - literally and figuratively. Thank you for laughter, joy and some tears, insight, poetry and passion. We didn't even really mind having to sit on the floor...:-) A lovely review of Pondlife from Billy Bob aged 7 - Thanks Billy Bob!
"It's good for kids to think about how they should treat people. Everyone should all be friends and not break up in the way that Martin and Simon did.I recommend this show to anyone who wants to see it." http://billybob7.blogspot.com/ After our epic journey from NYC we have arrived. It was kind of weird leaving at 6.30pm on Monday and arriving 10.30am on Wednesday but i seem to be able to function so that's okay. This is a picture of me going to work.
Had a lovely review in one of the NYC blogs The Connected Mom.
"It began with the premise that children are intelligent and discerning audience members. It assumed they are perceptive and emotionally intelligent and compassionate creatures. My son left the play wanting to see it again. I left with a renewed love of the theater." You can read the rest of the review here |
