”Year 7 loved the show! It was a great introduction to our poetry unit and my classes were all eager to get started performing their own poems! The boys really responded to the performance and many changed their minds about poetry as a result. Thanks so much for a terrific show!”

Teacher, CBHS Lewisham, 2006


"All the teachers thought they were brilliant!!"

Teacher, Sydney Technical College, 2005


"The performance was very engaging. They used the skills and techniques taught in the poetry unit and delivered in a relateable manner to year 8 students. Great use of performance poetry. This incursion is a keeper!"

Teacher, Freeman Catholic College, 2006


"Stimulating! Enabled the audience of Advanced students to engage with poetry in a way that was both accessible and entertaining."

Teacher, Knox College, 2005


"(The students) could relate to aspects of the poems - humour made the poems much more accessible and enjoyable. Took poems from the text book to the real world. Thankyou!"

Teacher, CBHS Lewisham, 2006

"The presentation was a great review of the content of the poems and their meanings. I liked the way the actors established a comfortable rapport with the students and how they were obviously confident with the poems......thankyou again for a wonderful experience."

Teacher, Penrith Anglican College, 2005

"The presentation was even better than I expected. We were really pleased. You managed to make the poems very meaningful and accessible by presenting them in dramatic form."

Teacher, Roseville College, 2005

"Very useful for revision and for highlighting key moments/relationships in the text. A very professional production. We will be booking again..."
