Waihi Drama Society Inc Reviews

 A great show .Very funny. Good to see excellent men taking part anf new young actors treading the boards.

 A great local night out with friends.

 Great performance,nice to have a laugh

 Staff were very accommodating, and even bought a stool for my wife to place her leg on, she has a knee brace for a fracture and needs to keep her leg elevated.

 Absolutely brilliant

 This was my first time seeing a show performed by the Waihi Drama society and I couldn’t be more impressed. The cast was world class. The show was polished and professional but had the small town charm that made it thoroughly enjoyable. I will be back again to see more shows. Thank you.

 Amazing, and funny. A great crowd.

 Absolutely delightful entertainment and the grand finale with the "Can Can" dancers was superb. Gifted actors who were able to speak with a French accent was very well done. 👏

 Easy to select and buy tickets. Helpful reception .

 Wonderful venue.....yummy supper.

 A wonderful production. Brilliant in every detail. (but the heat pump blasted everyone with cold air on the left facing the stage - we all scampered for our jackets as soon as we could)

 Loved that the programmes were included and the nibbles. A great idea and much appreciated.

 As a first timer - it was a like finding a real treasure chest - thanks.

 Interesting engaging and thoroughly entertaining production from all the skilled and enthusiastic actors and musicians and production crew who worked so steadily to bring us this fascinating show . Thank you for your dedicated practises and show

 Delightful

 Funny and clever story lines.

 Fantastic performance ....the French English was impeccable and loved the play's slapstick humour and zanyness Congratulations to all involved !!

 Very good performance by most

 Hilarious show - sets, actors and adaptation considerably better than expected. Extremely well done all round.

 Absolutely hilarious !! Well done to the whole company .We are blessed to have such a talented group in our town

 Enjoyed it. It was fun and well done. Edith’s acting a standout

 Lots of fun and laughter

 " Allo Alllo" was done so well. We enjoyed the performance, and all the cast members did their accents well.

 Good show

 Very funny. Well delivered. Hair and make-up done to perfection.

 Loved the play! The actors have worked so hard to make their characters believable. Some very good character choices. Renee and Herr Flick. But all were incredible. Thank you

 The Theatre group out-did themselves! With big shoes to fill with such a well known comedy, the actors really did the play justice, they did really well with their acting of their characters and maintaining their accents throughout. Fantastic performance!

 Very funny! Wonderful charcters … don’t miss it!

 Fantastic! My husband and I absolutely loved it! What an awesome bunch of actors and actresses. We will definitely come back to see more shows.

 It was a fantastic show, very funny and such great performances. Highly recommended.

 Pat, Mark & Ashley Scott. Dawn & George Strickland, Coralie & Lynn, Jo-Anne Cates. We had a great time at the show. We thought it was extremely funny and all the cast members were so talented and professional. Probably the best show we've seen so far. We'll done everyone.

 Awesome

 great movies and dramatic events.

 Loved the refreshments at half time.We found everyone so welcoming and friendly from the moment we walked in the door.Thank you so much.Cant wait for the next show.

 Thoroughly enjoyable evening. There’s even more laughs to milk out of this script.

 Appreciated the discount on tickets. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help out.

 Been loving what Waihi Drama does for 12 years.

 The play was so well cast & directed , so well performed , and so well set with a full interesting stage of props . It was an incredible show with youth theatre actors certainly showing amazing talent . The play was engrossing and very “telling” if trauma effects … The heat of the audience area was a bit much . So glad of a 15 min break and plenty of cooled water available

 Absolutely brilliants. Well cast. Poignant and evoked deep emotions. Extremely well directed!

 An excellent production from the set to the acting and directing. A must see!!

 It was so good. Loved it

 Very entertaining! Possibly the thing I’ve enjoyed the most at the Waihi theatre

 It’s was an amazing show - so much talent on the stage. a true life story told in such a great way - I could see the show on the big stage too. Congratulations to everyone involved - to those who missed it - you missed a treay

 Awesome show, humorous and very entertaining. We'll worth watching.

 Brilliant, such a fun show with a history lesson. Well done to everyone involved. Excellent A++++

 See above comment

 Another excellent show

 Such a great way to learn about our history. A top class show.

 Wow! What a fantastic show. Such an amazing group of talented people giving it their all. Congratulations Waihi Drama Society, an outstanding performance you should be very proud of.

 Was impressed by the actors who were faultless in executing their lines. The singing was well done and in the whole l enjoyed the performance. Being elderly though some of it was rather loud fir me and I have to say t that my enjoyment was diminished by an audience member in close vicinity to me wearing a very large amount of a very heady perfume which was very unpleasant in a confined space

 A wonderful show that was so professionally presented we could have been in New York! It was two hours of education and entertainment. Well done Waihi Drama. 👏

 Friends and I were very happy we had gotten together and attended the show . The talent hard work and effectiveness of the people involved was so noticeable . The set up right from walking into the lobby , greeting , foyer display and cast bio pics , to the stage set and costuming were superb . The cast and crew did a stunning performance and job . Cheers

 Awesome Show - Very well done

 One of the group can’t stop singing a couple of

 Great show. Very well done. Humorous and lively.

 Some well sung solos saved what i thought was a crass and stupid play

 Brilliant! This one has it all great music, great humour and great talent. A must see

 Great enthusiastic show and that's from one of the last paid up, card carrying chauvinist.

 This show is next level!! The characters, the costumes, the music, the set; all outstanding! What a triumph for a very talented director and cast. I want to watch it all over again!

 A great night - really good cast, lots of laughter and music , thoroughly enjoyable.

 Intense, vibrant and vital performance. Brilliant and meaningful.

 Absolutely fabulous. A strong play with a great actor. Cassandra Woodhouse, I would see again in any performance.

 We found Prime Facie fascinating, traumatic, brilliantly acted!

 John's embodiment and expression of the many characters he portayed was astonishing. He wove his intercultural tale in disciplined dance and powerful voice bringing our history and cultures alive in a way I have not experienced before. For me it was profound.

 Excellent play! It was a shame it wasn't more widely promoted with the schools in the area to get a bigger audience, as it was fantastic for the kids.

 Very well done, excellent voice, interesting about serious topics.

 Good effort for 1 man show

 An excellent production. Chris Green gave an outstanding performance

 Fun show

 Absolutely blown away by the talent portrayed on stage last night from the entire cast. Congratulations ladies, Edwin and crew for yet another hugely successful show, well done.

 That was the best play I have seen by far! Oh my goodness one moment I’m just about in tears then the next I’m laughing so hard a could hardly breathe. Fantastic job ladies you were absolutely AMAZING!!

 A most entertaining and enjoyable evening in a delightful venue. My friend and I laughed a lot about the book club story - so true to life!

 AnAmazing cast of beautiful wahine that performed a very enjoyable show. It was funny, witty, insightful all while being totally relatable. Very well done

 Really enjoyed the show.

 Thoroughly enjoyable - well casted - a great laugh!

 Very funny but quite long.

 Very very funny and very professional and well stage managed. Great music.

 Absolutely fabulous show. The cast are so talented and we roared with laughter and related to all six characters. A great Sunday afternoon of entertainment.

 Excellent entertaining evening. Inventive, funny, loved it!

 Interesting concept of presentation

 Superb show that had me & my friends doubled over in laughter almost constantly! Such talent & skill, and those songs being improvised - well done

 Absolutely top notch. Haven't laughed like that in so long. Hughley talented cast. Would happily watch it all again. Thank you for a superb evening.

 Fantastic evenings entertainment, lots of fun, very talented cast, very clever dialogue. Would recommend this shoe for a good night out.

 The performance was excellent and believable- well scripted and the actor played the role to perfection

  Appropriate topic for time of life -

 Very interesting 🤔, food for thought... Chris was so able to put the emotions into it, we really thought he was talking about his own life...

 Well done to all , we are very fortunate to have such a great facility in our town with an active theatre group . Okay

 wonderful show great cast well done to all .

 Didn’t get to see it as had the starting time wrong - no parking when l got there half an hour late. Didn’t think l should try to get in and find my seat would have bern disruptive

 Enjoyed the performance

 We took some friends that have never been to the theatre before, they really enjoyed it and laughed and laughed. So it was a hit.

 Was an amazing show Really enjoyed it The cast played there parts well Will be back

 What a fantastic night of pure entertainment... I don't think I have ever laughed so much in one sitting!! We are so fortunate to have so much talent in our little town... Cash on Delivery - a great hit worth every $...

 A great performance! We'll done everyone!!!

 very funny well executed play by lovable non-professional actors

 Fantastic show well done to all

 The fact that I had a smile on my face from start to finish says it all as far as I am concerned - which is not to say that I didn't laugh out loud frequently.

 Travelling around New Zealand has been made all the more special as we catch local events, and Cash on Delivery was no exception. We had a fabulous time at this small venue. The seating was comfortable, the beverages were tasty, the crowd and cast were equally enthusiastic and the price was right. The play itself was entertaining, and the few opening night hiccups fit nicely into the flow of the show. We highly recommend it.

 Brilliant opening night. Foyer felt like walking into a cocktail lounge and bar and 70’s style nibbles were a fun touch! Well done to all!

 Overall it was an enjoyable night out. However I felt the whole production wasn't quite ready for the stage (some cast unsure of lines, the 'dead body and stretcher' gags needed tidying up, and need to work out timing and techniques for hiding the 'special effects'). The play was also lacking pace in many places. It was a good fun farce with moments of absolute splendid comedy. Well done.
