Kid you must come back up to Glasgow again!
I am pushing the Mini Album out to all the social sites I frequent, so here’s hoping you get someone who can get the helicopter option sorted for you!
Oran Mhor – off Byres Road would be the PERFECT VENUE for “The Kid”

Hello, We’re thinking we may take our 7-year-old, who loves your CD, to see you in Aldershot. Is your show suitable for children this young? Thanks, Rhodri.

Hi Rhodri. the show is aimed at 3-8 year olds so it’s perfect for your little one. they may even win the dance contest?

Welcombe Children’s Group would like to thank you very much for coming down to deepest Devon with your show. It was a fantastic performance and we all really enjoyed it. The adults got as much out of it as the children. We would recommend it to everyone! The school run was highly entertaining today with the CD keeping us all singing along!

Gutted that you’re not coming to Glasgow, just found you when I heard you interviewed on the radio this week – so brilliant!!!

Sorry Wendy. we tried but no joy. but as the show’s working out really well it’s looking like we’ll try and tour the show again in 2013. hopefully we’ll get north proper at some point *Kc

Our 4 year-old boy won the dancing competition in Aldershot, shyly declining to proclaim his ego, and has been singing “Gorilla!” ever since. Thank you for a singularly wonderful experience.

Been meaning to post this for a while. We saw you at the afternoon performance at the MAC in brimingham- I was the one struggling with the grumpy 10 year old in the wheelchair -I was thinking I may have had to abandon ship if he didn’t calm down but right from the first G of Gorrilla he was hooked – as was my 6 year old (and my mother!) A truly brilliant piece of theatre and totally beguilling for kids. I find myself playing the CD even when the kids aren’t in the car!
Bravo!
Sharon Hopwood
(ps A friend was really gutted that she couldn’t make it and was prepared to make the trip to the Leicester performance as advertised on the leaflet but we can’t seem to find you on the Spark Festival line up – is this one not happeneing now?)

hi Sharon, thanks for the lovely post.
i remember clocking your son as he was protesting pre-show, i got a bit worried and was very happy to see that he was enjoying himself quite soon in (we’ve had a few screamers!). i couldn’t believe it when you all took to the dancefloor. you probably should’ve won the contest but it’s up to Badger and his judgement
unfortunately the we’re not doing the Leicester show anymore. boo

Ah Boo! She may well have to make a slightly more genteel trip to Malvern then.
Just to say also that my son, (hey let’s give him a name eh? He’s Tom) now won’t let a car trip go by without your cd. He has very few words and usually ‘observes’ the music rather than joins in but I can safely say he has parts of virtually every song that he sings along with. His ‘Nowwww’ in The Good Bit is hilarious, as is his well timed ‘Yess’ in I Am A Badger’.
Think I may just have to come along to Malvern as well at this rate!

We came to see you in Ipswich yesterday – it was fabulous – my 6 year old daughter loved it very much and even persuaded me to buy your cd – which we put on straight away in the car then she listened to it in bed last night – obviously our favourite song was the poo in the forest! We have the exact same gorilla here so he has been upto all sorts of adventures here!!
Thanks again for an excellent show – be sure to come back and visit Ipswich again. Helen
