“On Strictly, learning dances in a week is very tough, but to choreograph and direct a full show with dozens of numbers in is a potential disaster! I’m sure it will be fabulous! Even I give 10 points for bravery!” – Craig Revel-Horwood
“How absolutely terrifying, I would not have thought it possible. But I know they have done it before and doubtless will again. Good luck!” – Sheila Hancock
“To all concerned in the production of The Boy Friend – it’s a wonderful show and I have very happy memories of making the film. I hope all concerned have great fun in this production. Break a leg.” – Twiggy
“My first introduction to the arts was watching my brothers perform in Shakespeare plays at school. I was hooked! Everyone should have the same opportunity to be inspired. Good luck with the latest production.” – Dame Judi Dench
“What a mad idea! I love it! It’s always great to make the seemingly crazy and impossible happen! Let’s put on a great show, go for a Guinness World Record Charleston and enable more children to experience the magic of the arts.” – Anneka Rice
