"Giselle was AB-SO-LUTE-LY AND UTTERLY FANTISSOMO!
THE MUSIC WAS SUPERB!
THE COSTUMES WERE DELIGHTFUL
THE DANCING WAS EXTRAORDINARY AND THE WHOLE PRODUCTION WAS A MOST MARVELLOUS EXPERIENCE.
THE AMBIANCE WAS EXCEPTIONAL!
I'm not saying that simply because I happen to know the Ballet Master Di van Schoor, but knowing her and her husband Roland, just added to the sheer pleasure of the evening's entertainment! I have researched as much as I could over the past few days and will do more in due course. I'll happily see it again and again and again! "

"What a magical evening spent under the stars and being transported to the land of fantasy and creativity. Took me right back to when I attended as a high school student!
The costumes, the amazingly talented actors, the ambience, the food alles! It was just Lekker and I wish we could do this more often. Looking out for more shows already!!"

"A magical masterpiece, perfectly cast, flawlessly acted and a wonderfully entertaining rendition of Twelfth Night in beautiful Maynardville with delicious eats and drinks at the unique outdoor venue - all a fitting tribute to the 70th anniversary of Shakespeare in the park.
We are extremely fortunate to have an annual Shakespeare performance in our Mother City."
