“A small epic that deserves to be seen. It has gravitas and humor and songs that made me just downright happy. Thank you so much.” Dianne Eden, Senior Lecturer in Acting, QUT
“This glittery, fun filled production is energetically entertaining from start to finish, audience interactive and emotionally charged as the story vividly invites the audience to look into their own mirror to discover the courage to unpack what true happiness means after adversity and the importance of finding the strength to move forward.” Mark Theodossiou Australian Actors Network
"Congratulations HeartBeast on another lavish, luscious show! Cloud Cuckoo Land opened tonight and it's a joyous karaoke romp through fun songs, and a sensible reminder about entitlement, belonging and our obligation to share." Melissa Agnew
“Spectacular and engaging show. Great ensemble, great choices of music, great to see the audience so engaged - and to see the realisation of what must have been a marathon of work on developing the concept through to realisation in a full-on performance. Gold!” Gregg Goriss
“Absolutely Wild (with) stand-out performances from Warwick Comber, a commanding presence worthy of a Greek god, with a rich warmth to his voice that was divine whilst Emily Pollard, clearly a seasoned singer, is a joy to listen to. Her a capella treatment of the jazz standard, Skylark gave me goosebumps.” Greenroom
“I loved the magic realism in this intriguing show…. The cast is brilliant, some truly are songbirds”. XS Entertainment
“Tegan Devine was magnetic to watch. Samantha Cable gave us an instantly relatable character which was so likeable. Hamish Nicholson gave a vocally outstanding performance showcasing a voice of balanced timbre and sound technique…. Great comic timing.” Theatre People
