Hello all,
I apologise as this blog entry will be quite brief - I'm having to type gently as other people in the room are sleeping, and I don't want to disturb them!
Anyway, this morning saw the first of our reviews published - and I'm delighted to say that the nice people at Broadway Baby have given us FIVE STARS! You can see the review for yourself at http://bit.ly/bb_norman - but it's fair to say we were pretty happy to wake up to that! As this came out before our show, it put everyone in a great mood to start the day, and off we trooped to our performance...
The show saw another great audience in attendance, and they all seemed to enjoy what they saw. Excitingly, Jo Caird from Fest came along, and tweeted some positive words soon after:
"Norman Shadowboxer at C Aquila is a brilliantly imaginative piece of puppet theatre. Technically for kids I think, but I loved it."
Her full review will be in the next edition of Fest - so we're all looking forward to that! In addition, we are also currently the top-rated children's show on www.edtwinge.com - a site which aggregates positive mentions of the show on Twitter. Great news!
All in all, I think I may be the happiest producer on the Fringe today. This evening has been spent socialising with friends old and new, which has capped off what has been for me (and the company) a fantastic day. Sorry this blog entry hasn't been that long - but I hope those of you who haven't seen the show yet are now even more excited about coming along!
- Dan
