Absolutely spectacular,!!!!

Just came home from this musical. We were literally in the back row of the lower level up against the back wall. But we could hear perfectly! These kids as well as whole company didn't miss a trick! They nailed it! The blend of voice was incredible, these kids danced and sang their hearts out and it showed!! timing was impeccable ! The male actor playing Miss Trench bowl was perfect! Totally worth what we paid for it!!! ... Read more

I originally thought it was me but others said similar things. I would not pay to see this play if you have to sit in the upper level. It may have been because of the cast of children's young voices but they did their job perfectly. ... Read more
