Here is some of the feedback we’ve had from our young audiences on this autumn’s UK tour:

“Avec mes camarades de year 6 de l’école de Lindisfarne Middle School d’Alnwick, nous sommes allés voir votre spectacle la semaine deriére. C’était génial! Mon personage est Kent.” Gavin Summers, Year 6, Alnwick Middle School

“A bientôt, et bon courage pour d’autres missions!” Kristin Thompson, Year 6, Alnwick Middle School

“I liked how some of the play was spoken in French. I enjoyed the songs that they sang and it was funny seeing the actions they did. It was good that they made it about chocolate, as most children like it. I hope they do another one because it was a really good day.” Sally Burridge, Year 6, Hexham Middle School

“I think that the play was fabulous, amazing and a bit funny. The best character (and my favourite) is Jack even though he was extremely clumsy (and loves chocolate). I really think (and hope) that Zug Bars are never really made. If you haven’t seen the wonderful Around the World in 80 Minutes GO SEE IT NOW!!!” Imogen Dodds, Year 5, Hexham Middle School

“Around the World in 80 Minutes was a really good show because there was singing, dancing and jumping around. The songs were very fun to sing along to. It was an excellent show!” Jessica Heron, Year 5, Hexham Middle School

“I found the story good and some parts funny. I liked it because you also got to join in with the songs that were sang French and in English.” Victoria Dent, Year 6, Hexham Middle School
