Here’s what some audience members had to say about at last year’s concert:
“Wow! My wife, my mother-in-law and I attended last night. What a show! All three of us said it was AMAZING! My wife said it was the best show she had seen since attending Les Mis in London in 1995...that's saying a lot. Well....everyone on stage was fantastic but Jackie blew us away. What a voice.....my gawd! We are already looking forward to next year's venue. This time we will be inviting all of our friends to join us.” David Velikonja, Guelph, ON
