Audience Responses

Hi there! Really enjoyed the show but, there were two people in front of us who were videoing the show on their phones until eventually we asked them to stop as this was distracting. Is this allowed????? If not, please announce before shows in future????

The Group was terrific but Louise was sublime. Her voice and presentation were SO good. Albert Combrink too - what a superb musician and arranger. He truly anchors the group. Thank you for presenting the show. Perhaps an encore in a couple of months? One crit: the lighting was dreadful. it was so on and off all the time I thought I was in a sort of disco. Puhlease. Raising and lowering the lights is fine but every 15 seconds, nah!

Dear Nick & ED, One of my sincere regrets is not living in Cape Town or I would be there far more often. I know Stellenbosch is not that far .. Thank you for this venue and the Wonderful Bar and the great buzz you add to Cape Town. Kind Regards Bill van Rensburg
