Thanks to Chimes

This is a selection of the kind comments that we have received from audience members over the years.

July 2007

	We so very much enjoyed the proceedings on Friday night - it was wonderful... We are very lucky to have so much talent to entertain us.
	Just a note to say how much we enjoyed the concert on Friday. It was a superb evening from the service in the church to the amazing concert. You must all have worked so hard to put on such a professional performance. Many thanks to all concerned.
	Congratulations ... on a wonderful show. I thought it was the best value for money in entertainment I've had for a long time!
	I am sure I am joined by all who enjoyed this wonderful evening in expressing our thanks and appreciation for the outstanding performances from [the cast], who all gave so freely of their time and talents... those who heard Selwyn perform as the mightiest magician of the age will, like me, have a little difficulty in adjusting to viewing him again as our Rector!

July 2006

	We all thoroughly enjoyed the evening, and thank you for putting on such a terrific show... The evening was great fun and a delight.
	Be not forgetful to entertain strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares... Strangers, angels, or just random residents of the benefice. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

November 2004

We had a wonderful evening. Thank you so much. I was in church on Sunday morning and so many people came up and said how much they had enjoyed it, how professional it was, and what lovely people you all are!

October 2004

	...we were immediately transported to a magical musical land. The singing was of such a high professional standard that we were speechless with admiration...
	...Chimes gave us an evening we shall remember for a very long time... I'm pleased to enclose West Wimbledon Operatic Club's cheque for £300 towards Hearing Dogs for Deaf People's funds...
	What a wonderful performance Chimes Musical Theatre put on for the benefit of Hearing Dogs for Deaf People. Douglas, Diana, Beryl & I thoroughly enjoyed the evening and left the show with the wonderful singing still ringing in our ears. Even Pepe [the hearing dog] seemed to settle down and enjoy the singing and realised what the applause was all about! On behalf of HDfDP I would like to thank you and all concerned for the hard work and preparation that went in to producing such a professional and enjoyable programme.

June 2003

On behalf of everyone in St. Andrew's Church yesterday evening, we would like to say a big thank you to you all for giving us such a memorable time. We have heard nothing but praise during our various activities today... The evening was an outstanding success and enjoyed by all who were fortunate enough to be in the audience. Thank you both and your team for a memorable evening of entertainment.

February 2003

	I must congratulate you on the concert which I so enjoyed last Thursday evening. You were all splendid.
	A most entertaining evening... and a lot of work - congratulations.

It was a superb evening and everyone enjoyed it...

May 2001

	We very much enjoyed your varied and interesting concert this afternoon. Well done and thank you.
	The reports I am now hearing about your wonderful presentation yesterday should be making your ears burn...

March 1999

Thank you once again for the concert you performed for us... my Music Speech & Drama Committee in particular admired the individual singing talents of your group. The enjoyment of performance was evident for all to see...

September 1998

This is to say "thank you" again for the wonderful evening... everyone enjoyed it so much.

May 1998

	I can't tell you how much I enjoyed the concert (both times)... I've never heard the Beauty Stone music performed so well.
	An enormous thank you... for a really super evening... it was obvious that everyone enjoyed your presentation enormously...

January 1998

Thank you for a wonderful evening yesterday. We all thoroughly enjoyed the sheer professionalism you brought to the evening, as well as the warmth and fun that you all managed to put over to all of us. It was an enchanted evening - a little moment of magic in the middle of our village.

February 1997

...Thank you very much for... the splendid entertainment you and your young colleagues provided... my only regret was that there were so few of us to enjoy it; but like true professionals you put in the same effort for the "few" as you would have done if the church was full...

February 1996

To say "Thank you" for such a professional performance last Saturday somehow does not seem enough. Everyone was bowled over by the top quality of the singing and the acting - we have never had such talent...

January 1996

Just a note to thank you for the splendid Chimes Musical Theatre evening. It was delightful in every way - a huge variety of music most skilfully executed...
