"I am enquiring as to the cost and availability for Search for the Lost Tomb on either 6/01/11 or 7/01/11. This is the same production that we had last year and we were very impressed."
Matt Johnson, Sun Hill Junior School

"Just to say a huge thank you for today's visit by your company. It was fantastic. The children were engaged, entertained, involved and informed! What more could we ask for? The actors were great with the children and worked so hard. Brilliant! I'm really pleased that we are on your info list now. I've forwarded the flyer and info in the pack you sent me to a colleague in another school (I won't ask for commission!) With thanks and best wishes"

"Thank you for a really successful and memorable day. The actors were fantastic! The children were really engaged and they loved the workshop. They have actually learnt a thing or too as well! One of the teachers who has been there a fair few years commented that this was the best theatre company they have had at the school! (I agree with that )"
