Bramblewood Elementary
"I stood at the back of the gym today (Feb. 13, 2007), behind 300 grade K through 7, and watched motionless, totally involved and focused students watching ‘The Emperor’s New Threads’. I admit I was worried about the behavior of the older children but discipline was never an issue. We all loved your performance. The pacing, the humour, the zany characters, the clear message, the fantastic props (especially the crowd scene)… you did a marvelous job. Thank you very much for coming to our school."

"...it is wonderful. The children were mesmerized throughout the performance as was the staff. I have been in the Langley District for 27 years and this is the best performance I have ever seen. The set, props and use of said made a well known tale come to life in a new and innovative way. Well done. We hope to see another of your performances in the future."
