Oh my god- I love Pigeons so much. I had forgotten that it had a magical element and when ***** my mind was blown.

Thank you for giving us so much of your time, knowledge and positivity in Saturday's workshop. I enjoyed the inner dialogue exercise and I will be using this along with remembering my breath work. In fact I have already started implementing daily actor's prep into my routine.

Thank you both so very much for the fantastic show, for your generosity in making it all happen. It was a very special occasion and wonderful to get the feedback of such a great audience- a warm response from such a lovely range of ages which shows Pigeons and plantain's appeal.
