AUDIENCE COMMENTS -
Up North
It's good, meaty drama, well-written and well performed.
-Lee Matthews for the Manawatu Standard
Four Flat Whites in Italy
In true Roger Hall style, Four Flat Whites in Italy manages to be both funny and poignant, and the acting cannot be faulted.
-Michelle Duff for the Manawatu Standard
The four leads pass the ball back and forth, creating laughter and frustration, but more importantly friendship. They remind the audience that travel is about absorbing everything another part of the world has to offer, and a chance to see not only the locals but relook at ourselves... It is a must see!
-Joan Ford for the Feilding Herald
Highlights
Georgia Woods' vibrant voice and dynamic presence sails with ease and versatility through a lively and entertaining parade of famous blondes. There is never a dull moment in 50 minutes of high octane singing and witty presentation - don't miss it.
-Max Cryer.
It's quickly apparent her voice is strong enough to heft a 747 around, but while she shows plenty of flair and personality during each number, at no time was anything over sung. Her vibrato was perfect and in the end it's impossible to doubt her versatility and skill when handling such a range of musical styles.
-David Collins for The Tribune
Wood is a superb hostess, and her show is wonderful fun that no one needs to be blonde to enjoy.
-Richard Mays for The Guardian
Highlights encourages the idea that songs are touchstones which recollect, sort and savour moments in history. The vivacious Wood has done nothing less than capture the sound and heart of a whole lifetime.
-Richard Mays for The Guardian
Ladies For Hire
I saw just today your Ladies for Hire. I really enjoyed it. Well done! I am sure that you have in your hands a big hit.
-Jussi
We really enjoyed Ladies for Hire on Saturday Night. Cute, and light-hearted for Christmas. In fact we've really enjoyed every show that we have seen this year (we love centrepoint!!!)
-Shelly
