"This week I took my two sons, 1 and 3 to a performance of ""The colour of me"" at Corby Cube. My older son has recently been diagnosed with aspbergers syndrome, and I found your performance one of the most genuinely therapeutic experiences he has had to date. It has been a wonderful platform getting him thinking about emotions, how they are expressed, and how they can be handled. He was on the verge of a meltdown today and said to me ""Mummy, give me some yellow and turn my red into orange!"". You even had him participating in your performance, which for him, was a huge achievement and is high praise indeed for what you do. I don't know if you had autistic children in mind, but this was such a genuinely powerful piece of performance art for them. So much so, I have booked tickets to see the performance again in Leicester and will hopefully also see it in Stamford. I do hope you'll forgive me for stalking you. If a video is ever made, I would gladly buy it. It has been such a powerful learning experience for us, and one that already has contributed to a better family dynamic."

I enjoy these sessions as much as the children do and they take me back many years - they are magical

The show was truly magical. My eldest daughter was captivated by interactive parts of the performance and my youngest daughter was delighted by the music and use of lighting (she's 9 1/2 months old!). This was her first experience of theatre. As parents we loved to see the awe and wonder on their faces. We bought the book, which Lucy kindly signed and we read it last night before bed. I think it's going to be a hot favourite. Congratulations on a successful show and thank you for sharing your talent

This was a wonderful experience for children and parents to work together and the Centre would welcome more creative partnerships to enhance children’s opportunities. Wriggle were very friendly and what was on offer was very exciting. The parents have told me they would love to work with Wriggle Dance again.

Quite possibly the nicest way to spend a morning! Thank you so much for creating a beautiful sanctuary of space where I shared some special time with my daughters. We all really enjoyed this delightful, funny and well worked put production which was just perfect for children. You created a magical and enthralling show which kept them thoroughly entertained. Please come back to Burnley Youth Theatre soon!

My child has really grown in confidence since coming, especially around other adults. She used to cling to me a lot and now she doesn’t.

Thank you very much. Really enjoyed session, perfect level to give inspiration to my sessions with children. It was a great moment of team building in addition to being great training. I think every library should invite you!
