User reviews
- Magical experience and I was mesmerised by the ballet dancers feet amongst all the candles
- Great string quartet and wonderful dancers
- A very enjoyable concert. Thank you!
- a beautiful performance and wonderful experience
- Chantelle, the ballet dancer was brilliant, strong, entertaining and simply beautiful. Lovely music. We have seen the show at The Concourse Chatswood and Orpheum. The stage at The Concourse is larger and better for the dancers.
- Loved it 💜
- Absolutely fantastic
- Beautiful experience
- The ballet was a bonus didn’t realise there was ballet also! Would have loved for an intermission halfway.
- Amazing place and lovely people. The string quartet was amazing but I was sad to see only two ballerinas, and not a larger group
