Our House - 23-26 March 2011

My wife and I went along to see Our House, despite our sniffles and fully expected to be leaving early and getting some recuperation! Not only did we stay, we whooped and applauded the fantastic production and enjoyed the whole evening despite our colds. the score and storyline was excellent and well suited, plus the cast all obviously enjoyed the production and it showed.
Congratulations to all involved, it was probably the best Am Dram effort we have seen, in fact as frequent West End show visitors, we both agreed that it was better than several hit shows in our opinion, It is always a double whammy when you see a show at a fair price and really enjoy it, in the West End we usually get reduced price under £20 tickets and can recommend Priscilla, Wicked & Avenue Q but we shall certainly be recommending your companies "Our House" as up there with those shows.
Many thanks and congratulations
Pete & Karen Dawson

16/10/2009   Anita & Dawn  
The show was fantastic - lively music and great costumes.  Tony was great - when he first started singing it gave me goose bumps.  Great show!
 
16/10/2009   Sue  
Fantastic show.  Excellent singing - dancing.  Loved Tony (perfect for that role) and Lola's voice possibly was better than the professional actress I saw in the westend.  Chorus amazing!  Would come again if it was on for two weeks - well done Sx
 
16/10/2009   Sarah Lillie  
Fab show.  Maria, you were really great. It looked like you were all having such good fun too, I wanted to get up on stage and join in!!! x

19/10/2009   Krys & Richard  
Just wanted to say Copa was amazing! The costumes were just stunning - we cannot imagine how many hours went into making them! Special congrats must go to the girls in the show Larissa, Maria & Diane were outstanding and the dancing girls were fabulous. Having said that... well done to ALL involved
 
19/10/2009   Sarah  
Well Done to all those involved in the production of Copacabana. Everyone worked so hard to put on an amazing show but I do have to single out Larissa. Her performance as Lola was outstanding, why she is not in the West End yet is beyond me!
 
19/10/2009   J Metcalfe  
I had to let you know I thought Copacabana was wonderful. The dancing was amazing. Where did you find 5 such fabulous boy dancers - Dancing Fool was my favourite number along with Just Arrived. The girls were fab as usual. Special praise to Larissa & Maria - both girls were worthy of the west end.
 
19/10/2009   Joe  
Larissa you were wonderful. Charismatic, energetic, vocally stunning. Dancing was wonderful. At one point ever cast member was onstage but my eyes only focused on one!
 
19/10/2009   Karen M  
Wow! All I can say is AMAZING! Copa so good. Congratulations to everyone who was involved. Principals were fab, Dancing was stunning (esp the fan number) Costumes were wonderful (loving the sequins & feathers) and Set was great. Extra well done to Kenny for his cameo as Mr Brill... VERY Funny & Larissa climbing on the piano... genius!!!! Well Done all. X
 

Comments on Smokey Joe's Cafe - May 2009

07/05/2009Sharon Filmer
Just wanted to say what a terrific show saw SJC last thursday and quite frankly I didnt want it to end. It was just superb well done to everyone and many congratulations 
05/05/2009April Mart 
Dennis & I came to see the show last night and we wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed it. It must have been incredibly hard work with all those songs to learn but the production was very slick and everyone on stage did their bit throughout the performance. The vocals were splendid and complemented a super band. What a talented cast!! We brought some friends with us and they all had a good time. Some of their comments included "what a great bunch of singers", "well that was really good value for money", "oh God, I remembered all of those tunes", "a good fun night out". It would be hard to single anyone out as all the cast worked so hard, but I must say I was really impressed by Kate's singing and by how confident and relaxed a performer Tom Harvey has become. Please pass on our congratulations to everyone involved for a thoroughly enjoyable evening.  
05/05/2009Martin Cleave 
had a really enjoyable evening on Wednesday, what a fantastic production. Congratulations to you all! 
05/05/2009Jo Mountjoy 
The show was fantastic, as I am sure you will have heard many times already. I wish I were 30 years(?) younger and had the chance to sing in a show like "Smokey Joe". 
05/05/2009A fan!  Unknown lady came up to John, Jo and Hiran on Saturday night and said "It was better than the show in the West End"
05/05/2009 Andy Smith Just wanted to contact you to congratulate all of your members for the brilliant peformances of Smokey Joe's Cafe last week. I thought the show was professionally staged and executed and the quality in performance of each member, from chorus to principal, was very high. Another very positive aspect to your group was their friendliness and I again would like to thank you all for making the week most enjoyable. I spoke with some of your members during the week and many now know the society I belong to. For some reason we seem to be held in high esteem for our productions and I would simply like to say this - your production was more than worthy of any bigger societies production and your members are just as equal (some even better!!) to our standards. The only thing that we have that is different is the opportunity to stage shows on a bigger scale in a bigger venue and for that we are very lucky indeed. Please feel free to pass my comments on to you members. I wish you every success with Copacabana and hope to play drums / percussion again for you in the future. It really was a most memorable week. With my very best wishes Andy Chairman DAODS and your drummer for Smokey Joes Cafe!
03/05/2009Pat Evans 
That's ENTERTAINMENT!! Loved it. Will be here for Copacabana. "Here name was Lola, she was a showgirl.." 
03/05/2009Joan Chapman 
Very good show, but sound was too loud. Such a shame the lovely voices were distorted at times by the sound dept. 
03/05/2009Carole Cox 
"Oh how proud you should be, what a professional and superb production, left wanting more hands hurt with clapping it was such all round entertainment fantastic singers choreography was fantastic - I could wax lyrically for ages (not like me!!!) well done my lovely. xx Look forward to the next one

We loved seeing old friends in the show as well, Wayne Shan Mark Ian Maria Paul. Thank you so very much for a great evening. Wayne you just had sing one of my most favourite songs, you had me in tears. Keep us informed of the next one we will be there. 
02/05/2009 Myles Well done to you and all the cast! I came to the Friday night performance and it was fantastic. My parents and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I am so glad that you told me about it. It was one of the best productions by an "amateur" company that I remember seeing in many years. I thought all your numbers were great. I also thought the dancing was fab, in particular two or three of the girls. Good luck with the Saturday performances
01/05/2009Sharon  Congratulations to all the cast of SJ'C came to see it last night it was fantastic!!! Enjoy the rest of the week xxxx
