Audience comments for our recent production of "The Vicar of Dibley", performed in June 2024:

I just wanted to praise EVERYONE who was involved with the production at the weekend, from acting, lighting, sound, scenery, prompt and props being moved so efficiently. It was a thoroughly enjoyable production.

[We] made everyone aware of their [WETs Awards] voting forms and if there weren't that many completed, it is because people were saying everyone was so good they couldn't choose.

I am sure it was a feel good factor to all involved, because it certainly was to me, to hear many members of the audience say as they left that it had lifted them.

Well done one and all.

[Family] who support all our shows wanted me to convey how much they had enjoyed the show and wanted to convey their congratulations. They said that all the parts were very well played.

I have had some lovely feedback from my [Hunsdon's] Quintessence [Drama Group] friends. They all enjoyed the show, thought the casting was perfect, could hear every word and were impressed by us all being word perfect.

Well done us xxx

Just thought you’d like to know feedback from audience on WE Trophies forms.

One simply said ‘All excellent’

The other said ‘ Best play ever so enjoyed it and I can’t choose one over the other - but what a fantastic Hugo and Geraldine’

Well done you deserve it
