Great show, the performers are masters of their craft. The storyline had all the emotions, from laughing at the clowns to gripping ur seat wit the death defying routines. All this paired wit the live music was really impressive. Unfortunately I didn't take any photos I was to involved in watching an didn't want to take my eyes off the show. So thanks to all the performers, an those involved in creating an unbelievable event.

CdS was sensational! The level of professionalism is at the highest level, and the performers are incredibly inspiring. It is amazing what they have been able to achieve, which is a tribute to their training and preparation over many years. So much of the show was on the edge, which makes for thrilling watching. The grandkids were rivetted, cheering, clapping, gasping and laughing throughout. Please CdS come back to Brisbane!

Incredible atmosphere. Every performer was incredibly talented and very well polished. At any point during the performance, you could plant your eyes on any of the performers, even those who were not center stage, and you'd witness nothing but perfection of character and movement, total commitment to the art. Simply Incredible
