Dear Adrian, Sarah, Karina, John, Anita and everyone,

Thank you so much for a wonderful time on Friday with A Night At the Musicals. It was a truly inspiring and wonderful evening, and Pete and I were both very impressed and moved in equal measure.  The performing arts groups must have worked so hard to achieve their splendid performances, and there was obviously a lot of dedicated work from staff, parents and volunteers as well.

What we want to know now is, when can we buy a copy of the video? In fact, we might want several copies for family and friends! It was so enjoyable we haven’t stopped talking about it since!

Many, many thanks and best wishes to all.

I have just seen the most fantastic performance ever, by phoenix rising at the Chrysalis theatre. A night at the musicals. It was indeed. Absolutely amazing. Well done to all. You made me laugh and cry. We sang and clapped along. You were all superb. Thank you for a fantastic evening. Absolutely loved it. What talents you have.

What an absolutely fabulous show last night. Congratulations to all the talented performers loved every minute. Keep up the good work Lesley woodman x

Words cannot express how utterly amazing the work of Phoenix Rising is on these inspiring young people! truly bringing out the best in them! This years show was nothing short of magnificent and I am so grateful to everyone involved for their part in putting it all together...the confidence building is plain to see in the stage presence of each and every one!! Just when you think it couldn`t get any better!!....It jolly well does!! From my son Arry and I, `We Thank you!!`  

Hi Adrian and Sarah

I have to congratulate you and your team but in particular of course to all of the performers on such a successful evening. The commitment, passion and hard work from you all was clearly evident and it was infectious.  

It was great to see a full house and the support that it received and in turn the audience received an enjoyable fun show which was delivered with professionalism and supported individuals to show case their talents and potential. 

I think there are many of us who want to see what happens in the future and are looking forward to your next event.

You should all feel so proud – please pass my comments on to the performers and your colleagues. GREAT STUFF!!!!

Kind regards

Andrea
