“Thanks so much to Jennifer Bennett for bringing us the Mini-Musicals on the Move® version of Oklahoma! tonight. It was a smash, and if you couldn’t get to the Auditorium you really missed a great show. The singers were absolutely terrific—their wonderful voices came through despite the masks, and the acting was excellent. I didn’t know what to expect, but let me tell you that there was nothing amateur about this performance. I hope we get these folks back for another musical soon.” Goodwin House Resident
“I’m still hearing great words of appreciation from the residents about your last show, The Music Man. They loved it!” Teresa Harris, Recreation Director, The Fairfax Retirement Community
“We wanted to thank you so much for sharing the gift of music with us last night. I’ve heard refrains echoing through the halls. The reviews were excellent! What a wonderful art form.” Inwood House
“Thank you for bringing Mary Poppins to us!!!” Bedford Court Senior Living
“ You can’t imagine the praise heaped on the Guys and Dolls performance at KP today. According to several KP “old-timers” this was the best musical performance at KP in the last two years! The sing-a-long and pianist were well received. Interesting that there were guesses re whether or not it was an amateur or professional group! I enjoyed it as well and KP would probably be glad to have a return engagement!”
“A highly entertaining one-hour treatment of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Oklahoma! brought a standing ovation from a delighted Westchester audience…….In its own way, this production of Oklahoma! was as good as any of the Broadway summer stock I grew up with at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center in upstate New York. The performers were engaging and believable in their roles; the music was by turns rousing and heartfelt; the audience was smiling, swaying, toe-tapping—and at special moments invited to sing along—to some all-time favorites…” Excerpt from the Westchester Matters
“This was, indeed, a marvelous evening for the residents at Springvale Terrace!….. I thought I was on Broadway! They were superb, and left no stone unturned to completely satisfy us residents! The applause throughout, & the chants, yells and bravos of approval speaks well to the success of the program, and the satisfaction of the residents.”
“The performers created a close rapport with the audience.”
“I loved the whole thing. It was wonderful!”
“Your voices are lovely!“
“I liked everything! I really enjoyed listening to those beautiful voices!”
“I was so happy listening so beautiful program. I loved everybody’s participation.”
“It was marvelous from beginning to end.“
Thank you for taking time to come perform at Christ House! The Guys and Dolls performance is one of the best we’ve had in my year here! We’d love to schedule another one! Chris Tansey, Patient Activities Coordinator, Christ House
