This charming show managed to charm not only an extremely sceptical 8 year old, but his 40-something parents too. It's lively, touching, and manages the hard trick of not talking down to its children whilst still entertaining (and to be honest educating) the parents too. I'll be watching out for future shows by the same performer.

Will is brilliantly talented, both musically and as a charming lively storyteller. Very funny, lots of visual content and audience participation. The children in the audience loved it but there is plenty of content for adults to enjoy too - musical in jokes etc. His actor co-performer also very funny and lively. Should be selling out every performance!

Our whole family (with boys aged 11 and 7) loved this show. Inventive, engaging, funny and musically inspiring. The boys came away humming improvisations around famous tunes! Incredible piano playing and great acting. Highly recommend.

Virtuosity and warmth with a well constructed plot and tech back drops to engage the audience. Fantastic piano "tricks" and joyous homage to musical genres and Mozart. Zany piano and excellent acting - an exciting and uplifting little gem to entertain and inspire.
