Reviews
"This is a tale of finding your inner courage and working together as a team that will resonate with those children in particular who find doing anything in public a trial. Equally it demonstrates that behind every public performance lies a great deal of a gentle kind of magic that comes when friends support each other just because ... With its vibrant scenes of friendship and prestidigitation this should be a winner with young audiences." * Red Reading Hub *
