Barney Barnum – regarding the Chuckleheads’ performance at the 75th anniversary of the Kool Park Pool in Hickory, NC

08-15-10

Thanks, Scott. I believe every attendee had a great time.

Kids were charmed, adults were entertained, and Robin and I were delighted to be there and a part of the program.

I appreciated your team’s patience in the rain delay.

Please forward another “thanks, job well done” to your crew.  LKN Productions will be using you again in the future.  We are currently developing programs for inner-city schools in the Charlotte area focusing on leadership.

Gaylene did a fabulous job of pulling all the resources together and I felt the Carpenter family has been keenly aware of the great impact she has brought to them and to Hickory, NC.  This event was an example.

I fully anticipate and wish for you additional venues from other groups and companies in Hickory for you.  You can add my testimonial to your repertoire and referral base.

I plan on seeing you at one of the upcoming workshops.  Let’s stay in touch.

Sincerely and appreciatively,

Barney

Enjoy your weekend!

Thank you so much for your kind words!  We thank you for the outstanding workshop you presented to us!  The students thoroughly enjoyed themselves and I know they will take away many new found skills to apply to the Theatre arts and beyond!  Your energy and enthusiasm was a great start to the day!

I look forward to inviting you, and perhaps some additional members of your troupe, back to LNCS next year!

Scott, hello!  I was under the weather all last week and just wanted to get back with you regarding your request.  I did thoroughly enjoy working with y’all and our residents really loved the kickoff to the holiday weekend.  Thanks you so much and I would love to have you back again whenever you would like to join us!  Below you will find the copy that was used in the promotion and my thoughts and comments about the night.  If you need anything more specific or would like to include my phone or email, please feel free!  Happy Monday:) Charlotte

AND…

Our 2^nd Baxter Village Front Porch Friday was a huge success thanks to The Chuckleheads.  Their father’s day based comedy improve show was a complete crowd pleaser and it drew quite a crow.  I have continued to receive really positive feedback even into following weekend’s scheduled activities.  They group did an amazing job taking what could typically be considered an adult type form of entertainment and kept our all-ages crowd excited, engaged and best of all laughing.  The were extremely respectful of our younger audience members without losing the laughter or the participation of the adults.  The format was great, the team was easy to work with, professional, fun and on time.  I can’t wait to have them return for another show very soon.  In terms of a family friendly show, this one actually drew a diverse crowd… with and without kids and those with kids the ages ranged from little tikes to teens, which are my most challenging group to engage!  Many thanks for an excellent night of comedy!
