Really liked your show guys with the singing and vocal arrangements.

A real hidden gem of a show with outstanding vocal quality throughout!! The characters were hilariously larger than life and at multiple points I had tears in my eyes from laughing so hard. Absolute powerhouse cast with not one weak link among them, they are certainly not one to miss :)

A fantastic acapella trip thorough the ups and downs of a first year uni life. It was laugh out loud funny interspersed with brilliant singing. Would recommend to anyone, but if you've been to uni beware it may be triggering.
