Dear Bilby...

This letter is to let you know that we were very happy with one of your entertainers, Michael the Pirate, who looked after 19 children for Alexander’s 6 th birthday party.

We did spend some time searching for a pirate entertainer who seem to be in short supply in Sydney.

We were worried before the party about having so many children at our place and for ½ an hour they ran amuck, climbing on the garage roof, running through the house and then declaring the party was boring after 15 minutes.

Then Michael turned up swaggering down the road in his pirate costume, looking every bit like the real thing. The kids immediately became very quiet as they listened to Michael tell pirate stories and do impersonations, and for the next 1 ½ hours they were absorbed. Michael did a treasure hunt, dancing, performed tricks, made some amazing balloon swords and other shapes and face painting. He also gave special attention to Alexander. All this on a very hot day.

We have no hesitation in recommending Michael the Pirate to the other parents, and would say that his entertainment was worth at least double the amount we paid.

Best regards

Thank you so much for helping us have a great party on 5 December (Killara with Meg the Elf).

You might remember we had a group of 14 children ranging from 2 years to 10 years and quite a lot of them with cerebral palsy. It was a tough ask of any entertainer and Meg did a fantastic job.

As a group of parents who are normally hands on with our kids the majority of the time it was fabulous to have Meg there to entertain the kids. The adults actually all sat down together to lunch and finished before any children were looking for us. We even managed lunchtime conversation! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and could see that the kids were having a ball.

Meg went to great lengths to make sure she understood the non-verbal children and was a natural at getting an answer from them. Meg spent lots of time with all the children and did a great job of spanning the wide range of ages. Her memory for names is enviable.

We had a great experience with Bilby from the minute we phoned. Your desire to 'get it right' with the challenging group of kids was really heartwarming.

Thank you from kids and adults alike.

Kind regards

Just a short note to say "Thank you" for our wonderful Santa we had at our Christmas Party on Saturday 11th December. He put on a wonderful show and the children absolutely loved it!! (Parents too). We would love to book you again for next year.

Thank you for entertaining at our party last Saturday. We had a wonderful Teddy Bear's Picnic at Blackburn Gardens. Our beautiful bear puppets are already precious favourites. Thanks for our special membership certificates and for staying on to sing Happy Birthday, beyond your time. We've told Mum we want Maria at all our parties, at least until we're ten. With love, your friends and fans.

Everyone sang your praises and rightly so for Peter Pan's presence at the celebrations of my birthday Sunday. Certainly Peter was a star. Thank you for doing everything so well.

I have no hesitation in writing this reference for Meagan, who hosted a birthday party, as fairy princess for my three-year-old daughter, Mia. Mia had about 12 friends at her party ranging in age from two to five years. Megan was excellent with the children, including all of them in activities and taking time to make each one feel special. She was particularly caring with Mia who is affected by Muscular Dystrophy in not being mobile. Megan has a caring and gentle demeanour and an angelic face, the children were in complete awe of her - a true fairy princess. The CD produced by Bilby Productions, used during the party and left as a gift for Mia is creative and we have continued to enjoy it since the party. I highly recommend Megan and the professional approach of Bilby Productions to all little fairies, their families and friends.

This is just a note to say Thank You! We had Carla come along and be Cinderella for Brianna on 27 May and she was fantastic. Brianna and all her friends had the best time and it certainly made the party much more manageable for me and my husband. We can't praise your organization enough. Please pass on our thanks for a job well done to Carla.

I have just used your services for the first time over the weekend. My son had a 7th Birthday Party, for which he chose your vampire theme. Jason was such a hard working Vampire, and such a hit with all the children at the party. The booking went so smoothly from the first phone call to the day of the party, and I was so pleased with everything. Your services were very professional and I will be recommending you to all parents organising parties. Once again, thank you for making a potentially stressful occasion an absolute breeze!

I am writing to express the playgroup's thanks to Stephen for doing such a great job entertaining the kids and mums at our playgroup Christmas party on Thursday 9th December last year ... he made a great Santa and his talent and energy left us all pretty speechless! We look forward to another Christmas party with Bilby this year.

We would like to take the opportunity to offer our appreciation for your part in the organization of “Rawhide 2004” Without exaggeration, I think it is fair to say your troop of amazingly talented and wonderful actors, dancers and musicians were responsible in the making our event the triumph it was.

… Thankyou John for being such a wonderful MC/Mayor and ensuring the event ran so smoothly. You certainly took a lot of pressure off Carolyn and myself in your efficiency….

Maria we really appreciate all the choreography work you did with the girls…

Pass on a huge congratulations and thankyou to your actor, musicians and dancers.

We look forward to working with Bilby Theatrical Productions at many more events in the future.

Yours sincerely
