    The story was lovely and relevant to kids and adults alike. The actors were awesome (--super thank you for coming out after the production and wishing a Happy Birthday to our grandson). The theatre was lovely, and the theatre staff were friendly and helpful. All in all, it was a wonderful experience for us and for our six year old grandson. Thank you to the Smeds and Smoos production family!

    The staff at the theatre were great and the show first class ------------------ Surely you need to know what was bad ? Not clever to deny custiomers to complain ------------------------------------- The booking system was long winded and faulted several times. The booking took three times so assuming Headout are responsible for this area, and you get other complaints
