Dear Management:
My wife and I had the distinguished pleasure of attending your theatre and witnessing the fantastic production of "Sisters of Swing" on Saturday, August 23, 2003.
Your establishment is a true asset to Door County and Wisconsin and you certainly understand the true meaning of guest satisfaction, food preparation, and service!
I am a big fan of the Andrews Sisters, have dedicated my music/teaching room at our home to the Sisters (photos, sheet music, records, and memorabilia) and was delighted, to say the least, with your production. Megan, Bonni, Katilin, David, and Nolan did a truly awesome job portraying their characters, and should be commended for a knock-out production! Your behind-the-scenes crew deserves a round of applause as well, for as we know, without them, the show would not go on!
I am certain that Ms. Patty Andrews would be delighted in seeing this production and one could even feel the spirits of Maxene and LaVerne Andrews in the place during the show! A special thanks to your establishment, the members of the box office and the members of the cast for making ME feel like a celebrity that evening. Unbeknownst to me, we were seated at your VIP table, dead center of the stage, and throughout the course of the production I was pulled up stage to polka during "The Beer Barrel Polka," had to don a military cap and play a soldier at the USO watching the Andrews Sisters, and prior to the show, David even announced to the audience that I had met Maxene Andrews and corresponded with her for a number of years.
I am STILL AMAZED a the warm reception that we encountered, the excellent food and service, and the three girls' ability to harmonize perfectly, but also dance, shake and move across the stage while singing!
At "only" 35 years of age, I know I am an exception to the rule of what "should" I should be listening to, but have found the girls' music to be not only an inspiration to me, but to several of my pupils as well.
Thanks so much for an enchanting evening, and best wishes for a successful run of your Patsy Cline production. WE WILL RETURN in the future to your beautiful establishment and hospitable Door County Wisconsin.
Warmest Regards, Bryan, Bellaire, MI |
