I just got back from Singing Willow's bilingual singing show, and it was such a blast! Their voice is amazing, and the mix of French and English songs kept everyone engaged and having fun. The energy was infectious, and Alexandra really knows how to connect with the crowd. I loved singing along and just enjoying the vibe. If you get a chance to see them perform, definitely go—it's a great time!

Amazing show! The kids were completely captivated, music was very nice and it is fully enjoyable even if you don’t speak French, and even still the addition of French really elevates the show!

What a lovely show! The atmosphere was really magical, from the enchanting melodies to the gorgeous illustrations, decors and costumes. Kids seemed to be having a great time - it’s an interactive show where they get to go on stage during songs and hold cute props!

A beautiful musical for both children and adults who love music! The show is fully interactive. It was so much fun to see the children enjoying themselves on stage and singing. The decor, costumes, and beautiful illustrations from the book displayed on the screen behind the performers added a magical touch to the show. We absolutely loved it!

The band are cute with their animal hats and children in the audience had fun dancing around. The singer had a beautiful costume and created a whimsical escape from the hectic crowds of the Royal Mile. Would recommend to young families.

Lovely performance. Whimsical music, beautiful costumes, and the stage decor was absolutely stunning! Creative song selections, and fun props for children to engage with during the songs. I enjoyed the mix of English and French lyrics.

The show remains accessible to both English and French speaking audiences as Borghino translates everything she says. It is well-executed throughout and children will love to be part of this enchanting bilingual world.
