I loved the way that it was a complete performance and no aspect of your entertainment was left out with there being both music, dancing, instalations, puppetry, film and acting. It is cheezy to say it but I think the opening by Jarvis Cocker and closing by Damon Alburn were the right choices becaue they definately stole the show from the singing point of view. Although they didn't have the strongest voices they had such amazing stage presence still.

This was a spectacular piece of theatre, the proper showplace for Walker's art I would say, (definitely not easy armchair listening stuff) and well done to both the director and producer. Do not worry gentleman who missed it, this show was so good, I for one would be very surprised indeed if it's not taken on tour elsewhere after this !

So good to see Scott there applauding everyone at the end of each performance, and then he took a fantastic standing ovation on the last night!!! I'm still flying high!!!!
